The question is: Where will you call home after you leave this earth? The most important question of your life.

10/30/10 What does home really mean? Home represents our point of identity, our base of operations, our primary responsibility. Home gives life its roots, its sense of direction and purpose. We count on it over the long routine of a day and develop a security, stability, and a consistency. What about home with eternal dimensions and incredible proportions? It means facing every new dawn with dependence, living literally on the raw edge of reality. Home is where the heart is. Make it happyJ

Home...I had lunch with my Uncle today. He struggles with the loss of my Aunt in July. "Over 60 years together" He says, starting to cry. "How do I move on?"

This week I thought alot about the lyric from The Rising (Springsteen):
"I see you Mary in the garden
In the garden of a thousand sighs
There's holy pictures of our children
Dancin' in a sky filled with light..."

When My Uncle goes on to the Greater Glory, what will he see there? My Aunt, greeting him, with her ugly anger and grudges wiped clean?
