“Home is where the heart is. No, nothing quite as simple as that. Home is where you struggle, in a world of endless struggle, to become the best you can be, and it becomes home in your heart only if one day you can look back and say that, in spite of all your faults and failures, it was in this special place where you began to see, however dimly, the shape of your soul.”

Home was the story of what happened there, not the story of where it happened.”
― Dean Koontz, Ashley Bell

“Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal.”
