I feel like my own skin is finally home, this soft, vulnerable, imperfect female body, and that's a pretty amazing feeling after 51 years.

I love this post. We are preparing for my husband's early retirement and upcoming permanent move to a tiny town in Italy. We are leaving for a week at our home there...and though my kids, my dogs, and all my stuff is here...in Texas...we already think of our little Italian casa as 'home.' My father no longer lives where I grew up - going there isn't going home for me, especially since my mom died several years ago. So I've been thinking a lot about the construct of 'home', especially now that my children are beginning to leave the nest. For me, home is where we go to gather together...regardless of location.
