Postcards Home




The incessant rain was beginning to take its' toll on me until I stumbled across this very cute blog documenting one person's quest to define the perception of 'home' ...one postcard at a time. "If home is where the heart is, where is yours? A visual exploration of the concept of 'home,' across continents, oceans and neighborhoods." I love this idea! Reading through each submission, my own surprisingly strong reaction was a clear indication to me of how powerful the concept of home really is. Some of the responses were sweet, others were funny but all equally significant. It made me wonder how others would react when posed with this very question. Just thinking through what exactly home means to me put a smile on my face on an otherwise gloomy day.

Home is a name, a word, it is a strong one; stronger than magician ever spoke, or spirit ever answered to, in the strongest conjuration.
