home...

John H. Payne who is the author of “Home Sweet Home” once wrote,
“Mid pleasures and palaces though we may roam,
 Be it ever so humble, there’s no place like home.”

Although I have been in college only for ten days, my dorm room and new friends are nice, the cafeteria has great foods…etc., my home is just too sweet and graceful.  

After I again contacted with my sister’s loud laughing sound, my father’s horrible jokes, my mom’s ambrosial food and warm hugging, the amalgum of happiness that I felt cannot be expressed.    

When the world objectively and precisely calculates my appearances, my characters and my background, so, when I must buttress myself up to not be collapsed by the world, home embraces me as myself; whether I am a good student or a bad student, whether I am fat or thin, whether I am funny or boring and whether I am a good Samaritan or a murderer Barabbas…

Home, where my family who loves me and ardently prays for me dwells, where my mind feels so peaceful, where I met Jesus Christ, my Savior, and where my life had grown, “Be it ever so humble, there’s no place like home.”

I pray for that everybody has some place called “home.”
