Home is a destination-- the ultimate destination."Going home"has a meaning more poignant than perhaps any other phrase.
It is first spoken with true feeling by a child just turned loose from hi s playpen to explore the wide world of the next-door yards.His first crushing experience with disappointment,or anger,or physical hurt brings a rushing torrent of emotion that ends with a tiny voice piping:"I'm going home."
Home is the sanctuary where the healing is.
Nothing brings as quickly to mind the horror of natural upheaval,civil strife or war as the picture of the "homeless".The deprivation of the security of home is the worst of the mass tragedies.(Walter Cronkite)
