No matter how content a home you live in, every time adult life taunts you, a part of you yearns to return to that warm childhood house

What is it about houses? Do they ever truly leave you? Even when you think you’ve left them for good, they somehow manage to creep into your dreams, waking you with the longing you never knew existed.

Houses where you learn to do chores, cook, clean and do laundry like clockwork. Where you learn to become a host and cherish relationships. Even though you know you’ll eventually leave, you keep loving these houses for the love and learnings they gave you. When you do leave, those houses don’t leave you.

But our houses weren’t always ours. They belonged to someone before us and probably to someone else before them. They will belong to someone else after us. Somebody will call them their own; the wall with your proudly displayed DIY artwork that haunts you in your dreams will hide behind a bookshelf. The corner where you watered a giant planter and stained the floor will hold a tiny cat bed.
