Home is the place where, when you have to go there,
They have to take you in.

I’m fascinated by your choice of image to go with the quote.
To me, home is where you feel comfortable taking off your shoes.
There truly is no place like the home where you can be unmasked and de-shoed! And agree with Sybil – what an “out-of-the-box” image. 🙂
The phrase ‘kick off your shoes and relax your feet’ comes to mind. Of course these days people often want us to take off our shoes when we enter their homes, before we feel comfortable about it, to keep the floors cleaner. 🙂
Honoring your father with you. A few moments of silence for those whose shoes no longer walk alongside ours…
Thank you for sharing a few moments of silence with me here, Kathy. How I miss going home to my father’s, and the walks we once took, and I think of others who long for the memory of their loved ones, too…
