My precious roommate and bosom friend ("Anne of Green Gables") wrote this song this year, it is similar to how I feel right now. Home, my family, friends, and church are always a source of joy and a reminder of where I came from and where I'm headed. Sometimes, being away at college and trying to "figure out life" I lose focus, get distracted, and forget to listen to my heart. So, I'm glad I get to go home this weekend, even if it is for less than 24 hours. :-)

"Been on my own for far too long,
Too busy singin' to my own song
Chasin' a shadow here and there,
Choosing to brush aside my worries and my cares.

But, I am headed home, my friend,
I just want to go home.
I'm covered with the dust of earth,
I am needing your kind words.
I just want to go home.

Moving to the beat of random drums,
Not questioning the source of where my wants came from,
Through it all away on passing chance,
Finding myself sold on the first glance.

I just want to go home...
Home to the source of this love,
Home to the source of my peace,
Home to the source of everlasting joy,
Home to the source of all I need.."
