So I was watching a movie the other day, called my Sister’s Keeper. During one of the scenes of the movie they played a beautiful song the words are below. As I read the lyrics, I began to think about what feels like home to me. I think we all at times need to take a sort of inventory when it comes to what we have in our lives. What makes us who we are. What people bring joy into our world. While this year was hard with the death of my father, I still have a life that is worth living. A life that needs to be lived to the fullest. I have a sense of peace in knowing I do have so much good in my life and the people in it I hold them near my heart always, because of them I know it will always feel like “I am all the way back where I belong.”
Lyrics to “Feels like home”-
There’s something in your eyes
Makes me wanna lose my self,
Makes me wanna lose myself in your arms
There’s something in your voice
That makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts
For the rest of my life
If you knew how lonely
My life has been
And how long I’ve been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you’ve done
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I’m all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I’m all the way back where I belong
A window breaks down a long dark street
And a siren rings in the night
But I’m all right cuz I have you here with me,
And I can almost see through the dark there is light
Well if you knew how much this moment means to me
And how long I’ve waited for your touch
And if you knew how happy you are making me
I never thought that I’d love anyone so much
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I’m all the way back where I come from
It feels like home to me
It feels like home to me
It feels like I’m all the way back where I belong
It feels like I’m all the way back where I belong.
Peace and love to all …..

Just as the unexamined life is a life poorly lived. No life is complete without some effort to connect with the deeper meaning of our existence. Whether we are jewish, Buddhist, Christian, or a non- believer, when we as seekers begin to reconnect more deeply with our spiritual centers we begin to achieve a greater realization of the profound wisdom and the intuitive awareness that is a natural part of each of us. This kind spirituality allows us to naturally recognize the inseparability of self and other. We gain the wisdom to see the relationship between the whole and its many parts. The more we cultivate our spirituality the more we become sensitive to what those around us see and feel. Cultivating a heightened spritual discernment and awareness helps us become a more kinder, caring type of person.
Peace and love

Life is about relationships. The relationship we have with ourselves, with each other, as well as the connection to that which is beyond any of us yet immanent in each of us. When our relationships are good we feel good. When they are bad we feel awful. Life would be so much easier if we all just accepted that we need each other. We need to feel connected; we need to feel each other’s presence and love.
I was reading an article the other day that stated that ancient scriptures in India say that we are all part of a universal web of light. All in one and one in all. We are never disconnected from a whole. I believe that. Nonetheless there are tmes where I feel disconnected from this knowledge. I just lose sight of where I belong and experience intense feelings of loneliness, alienation, and confusion. When I allow myself to feel what I need to feel in that moment, I am able to work through it, I become centered, and I get back on my spiritual journey of discovering who I am. We are all connected.
Peace and love
