* Here *

Home; the word that looks so warm and welcoming. Each time you see it, you will long for it.

When I read about the earthquake that happened in Chile & Haiti, I wonder how does it feel when you lose your home. These people not only lost their houses; they lost their families, their neighbors, their friends...almost everything around them. No one can possibly feel more homeless.

Home is not a specific place. Home is anywhere and everywhere; each place in which you are with the ones you love and can feel comfortable. Being in a house does not necessarily make you feel at home.

You can build your house when it falls apart. But, can you re-build your home when you lose it?

Cherish each moment. No one knows if tomorrow will really come.
