Last night our guest, Kate Cassidy, and moderator, Kristen Smith, led an interesting discussion on our thoughts about what “home” really means. The conversation took course as we questioned our own meaning of home and how our initial thoughts and feelings have changed over the years as we move, develop friendships and create new communities of our own.
Kate began the conversation by sharing her personal experiences and feelings around her sense of “home”. By sharing her experiences and research, she explained how her idea of “home” has changed meaning over the years. From her childhood house to adopting her dog and creating close relationships, “home” has developed in many different ways.
As our conversation continued, we explored many different issues around the idea of “home” and discussed how “home” is a feeling of belonging, sense of safety, connection and community.
What does home mean to you and has the meaning of home changed throughout your life?
