I was born and raised in a big city. I still live in a big city. But, I don't feel like I belong there. I love the quiet of the outdoors. I love the woods and would be so happy living in the middle of nowhere.
Of course, I think I'd miss the 5 minute drive to Publix, McDonald's, and the bank or the 10 minute drive to the mall and Target if I lived in the middle of nowhere. I think I've been in the city too long and I'm not sure I'd do very well that far out, even if I dream of it. I guess you never know til you really try it, huh?
It got me to thinking. Where do I belong? It's almost as if I don't belong anywhere. That made me think more and realize that I do belong somewhere, it's just not here. I mean here on Earth. I belong in the eternal kingdom and that's my real home. I don't think I'll be truly settled until I reach my real home someday. I would venture to say that when I get where I'm going, I'll feel perfectly at home. I can't wait! :-)
