I was in beautiful Byron Bay earlier in the year (when we could travel) I thought about the airport being a place where we all think about ‘coming home’ and what that means for us all.

The last scene in the movie ‘Love Actually’ captures it really well. I had a truly wonderful time away from home but of course I had Bub, a big part of my home, with me and I was missing Hubby who is my home.

Zen master Thich Nhat Hanh explains that in the Vietnamese language the wife refers to her husband as her home and vice versa. It’s very sweet and it seems to confirm that old adage that ‘home is where the heart is’.

Elvis Presley knew it too when he sang ’Home is where the heart is’:

For home is where the heart is

And my heart is anywhere you are

Anywhere you are is home

Home, home, home, home

Why not have some fun with it and tell your partner, ‘welcome home Home’ or ‘I love you, my Home’ as you impersonate Elvis – lips, hips and all.
