The sun sets on another day…
Sunset was beautiful as always. As we shift towards summer and slide through spring the grey days will become a thing of the past. Each day will be an adventure in color and amazement. I hope I can take a lot of pictures.
The song asks the question if we know the way to San Jose. In reality the song is about success and failure, or so it implies. If at first you don’t succeed there may be a way to succeed again if you restart from home. Perhaps that’s all the song needs to say. It’s time to start again and I will start from the safety of home.
As I grew up I did not have a super relationship with my father. An early divorce led to me not seeing him for a long long time. It didn’t really matter how or why but it did matter that I knew he was out there. He offered me at one time a very simple package. If I couldn’t make it at something he would always give me a place to stay and food to eat. I eventually offered that same foundation to my children and occasionally gave a little more.
The concept of home gives us a warm feeling. Having a place to fall back to can be the difference between ultimate success and partial failure. They say that home is where the heart is but I would like to say that home is where you are safe. If you have a home be excited and happy. You have a foundation that many people do not. When things get rough or maybe a little worse take a deep breath and find your way home.
So as the sun sets on another day, home is where the heart is, and make your home the most special it can be. Make it yours, make it always, and enjoy the moments at home, no matter what.
Sleep sweet, love life, and keep living…
