JohnSteed1967 -> Where or What is Home? (6/4/2007 5:47:10 AM)
|
When I was a child, I would tell my mom, "I want to go home"; Even though I was at home. Years later after my ex wife's sucicide attempts I told my shrink that that thought was entering my mind again but yet I had no desire to go back to South Carolina.
The Shrink told me that home was a concept of safety and security. That I was doing my best to latch on to that.
Now, three years after both my divorce and the sale of my childhood home. I have that thought entering my mind again, of "I want to go home". I don't have a home anymore with my ex wife. I don't have my childhood home. I have an apartment that I have done my best to make as much of a home as I can. But yet that nagging "I want to go home" is there again.
My shrink's safety and security answer dosen't really seem to answer this question, since I have money in the bank, I have a retirement fund, I have a solid job (Even though I hate manegment), What or where is home?
