safe

a girl i have as a friend on myspace posted this question in a blog. it made me think. here is the question and my responce. let me know your thoughts, and what you answer would be.


the question

i am working on a writing project.. and could really use your help with this. what makes you feel safe? what brings you protection? it could be being held in someone’s arms, it could be your teddy bear. unfortunately..it could even be something like partying. anything.. leave a comment if you would.. or if you would rather send a message.that would be great too… thank you!


my responce

being in a place thats “home” even if it’s not your home. when it’s the people that live there that make it safe to be “home”, a place that you know you can be you. you can let your guard down from the world. if your tired you can go there for rest, if you are scared you can go there for protection, if you are upset you can go there for peace, and you know if your hungry you can go there for food, but most important, when you are “home” not only do get love, you feel it. thats what makes me feel safe. im so blessed to have a place like that.

Larry- I love this. I’m glad I know where your blog is- it looks great and I can’t wait to start reading it on a regular basis! I love what you wrote here. You have a gift of making people feel at home. I can see in what you wrote that you really do provide these things for so many people. It’s amazing how a person can take on a feel of home. That’s what home is to me. As Bakersfield changes and grows each time I go “home”- I barely even recognize it or even the way Westbrook looks anymore…it’s the relationships that make home home.
