-a warm, welcoming place
-not having to ring the doorbell
-able to curl up on the couch in comfy clothes
-reading a book by the fireplace
-conversation about the events from the week or difficult subjects
-watching the Olympics
-knowing where the water glasses are
-laughing
-crying
-being real
-playing games
-experiencing true acceptance
-feeling valued
-having popcorn and ice cream for dinner on a Sunday night
I'm overflowing with gratitude after experiencing all these things. Sunday nights are worth more than a million dollars to me. I couldn't ask for more. I am so blessed.
Home is the one place in all this world where hearts are sure of each other. It is the place of confidence. It is the place where we tear off that mask of guarded and suspicious coldness which the world forces us to wear in self-defense, and where we pour out the unreserved communications of full and confiding hearts. It is the spot where expressions of tenderness gush out without any sensation of awkwardness and without any dread of ridicule.
