The meaning can be geographical, as in home place. The place of our birth may be the one place where we feel we belong. I was born in the Maniototo area of Central Otago, New Zealand. Whenever I go there, I feel a certain comfortable familiarity, a sense of belonging. The wide-open plains and vast bowl of the sky, the way the stars turn and swirl in the sky above me on a dark night, feels like home to me. To travel there is to return home. And it always will be home, although my life’s journey may require I live somewhere else.
