Home is where the heart is! Summer time, Bliss where's yours?

~ Home is where the heart is~

Home is where the heart is

mine is everywhere,

I like to live free in the discovery

of everything life has to give,

no rude awakenings

just strangers pave my way.

There’s a great big fine reward

in learning all things new

it doesn’t get much better than this

it’s always like a new loves first kiss,

fresh and distinct

always different and unique

something sweet

that’s always there;

each new corner you walk somewhere

someone new for you to meet

so crack a joke and make them smile

or take a seat and talk about life for awhile,

a constant reminder that God is good

just misunderstood

cause of the things that ‘we’ do

you have to like who you are

to understand where you’re at

when you’re looking out over

that spectacular ocean view,

or noticing that dog walker

smiling back at you;

the love of life is in what we do,

the choices we make that get us through,

happiness is in the discovery

that we don’t need to work so hard

that our hearts ache,

or our hair turns gray

or that you never get a vacation

because you haven’t enough pay;

Less is more

when you learn to uncover the richness

that’s there

in sharing good times and life

with people who care.

It’s amazing what one's kindness does

to help make life more pleasant

in all that we do,

I like living free

it’s the only way to be

to love so strong

fear nothing going wrong,

I can’t imagine doing things any other way.

Sometimes it’s all that we can do

to get from place to place

to discover those things new,

and the joys finding them brings

the more we discover who we are;

from this great big wide open world

built on hope, prayer, and a dream

in our understanding, the balance of things,

Home is where the heart is

and mine is Everywhere!!
