Years ago, Billy Joel wrote a song for his first wife called “You’re My Home.” It was for Valentine’s Day. He was poor, and could not afford anything else.
“I never had a place that I could call my very own,” he sings, “wherever we’re together, that’s my home.”
Eight years later they divorced, but the song remains beautiful, as when he first sang it to her in their warm little home.
Home is a magic moment, that warm tug at the depths of your soul. Home truly is where the heart is.
Right now.
Tomorrow is another day.
