Where is your heart?

Wear your heart on your sleeve like the numbers on your mailbox.

Engrave it like a tattoo on the palm of your hand. Hold it out to strangers.

Draw it in the windows of your mind and color it boldly with kind thoughts.

Home is where the heart is.

Where is your home?

Find the inner coordinates and shine them down on the lock like a porch light.

Draw that heart like a moth to the flame. Keep the home fires burning.

There is no place like home.

Where is your place?

Whether East or West, home is best.

A women’s place is in the home. It is better to say, her heart is in it.

A man’s home is his castle. He has the keys to the kingdom. That is to say, his heart is in it.

Where are you led?

They say you can never go home again.

Embrace who you are in this moment on this path and walk away.

Just remember. The porch light is always on. The side door is always open.

Chickens come home to roost.

What have you done?

Entertain angels unaware.

Love your neighbor.

Be kind to yourself.

Charity begins at home.
