And what home as a term means to you.<br /><br />It is with sadness that I have left the house I once called a home, but I truly hope one day it will become the same loving and sheltered place to someone new. I hope someone will step through its door and find “heaven on Earth”, just like I once did. I believe it is only waiting for the right person, like it once waited for me…<br /><br />Thank you my dear friend for your words of empathy and comfort.<br /><br />Xoxo<br />ZuzanaZuzanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02137958790178864561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784042461030289587.post-63857318179686423162011-08-24T16:42:36.839+02:002011-08-24T16:42:36.839+02:00I can totally understand your feelings Zuzana.

Does the soul of the house also transport along with you when you leave and occupy another place? I wonder whether there is a separate home-soul which is establishes everytime we set up a new home.<br /><br />Like Myrna, I wish that the process ends faster and that you will be in peace as you make the new house into a home.<br /><br />Joy and peace,<br />SusanS.
