Art Feature: When I Think of Home

“If you're listening, God

Please don't make it hard to know

If we should believe in things that we see

Tell us, should we run away

Should we try and stay

Or would it be better just to let things be?

Living here, in this brand new world

Might be a fantasy

But it taught me to love

So it's real, real to me”

It’s hard to pick a favorite Diana Ross song, there’s so many good ones, but it may have to be “Home” from “The Wiz.” It reminds me of my journey leaving my home state of Alaska, where I grew up, where my close friends are, most of my family, all the things I’m familiar with.

But being on this journey from Alaska to Oregon now to Arizona (and who knows where next???) has allowed me to experience things I would not have if I stayed where it was familiar. I probably could have gone without the near-death experience, but even that has lead to all kinds of great things I never thought possible before. It wasn’t all positive, but I’m still grateful for it all, and I’m especially grateful to God for keeping me through it all.

“And I've learned

That we must look inside our hearts to find

A world full of love

Like yours, like mine, like home...”🤍
