“Let’s go home.”
These words pull powerfully on the human heart. For most of us, the notion of home stirs something deep inside us, a longing that’s not easy to articulate. We want to belong somewhere. We want to find rest somewhere. We want a place of tranquility beyond the reach of the cold clutches of the world. We want the dusty road to end, eventually, in a quiet glade with the murmur of insects and the trilling of birds and the sunlight slanting through an open door. In short, we want a refuge.
