Beautiful piece Cai -
"Home" is such a rich word that carries with it such a diversity of meaning and understanding it's a wonder we can even use it to communicate with each other.
I'm fortunate (on a good day) as I live next door to the house I grew up in - we arrived here after a half-dozen moves (voluntary or otherwise) post 2008 crash. I've discovered that places really have 4 dimensions as even though I'm living in my hometown, the experience is completely different in 2022 compared to 1972. With apologies to Heraclitus, although I'm certainly not the same man I was - the town is not the same town it was either.
