Walter Whitman said, “Home is where the heart is.” There is a longing in each of us to be home—a place that is familiar with unconditional love. Children may stray, but within them is a desire for the love, care, and safety of home. They want to be home. Sometimes there are difficulties along the way—bad choices or circumstances that hinder their return home—but like the prodigal son, they finally realize that there’s no place like home.
