home

Years ago, I fell in love with the movie Garden State. There was a line in it about how home (for the male protagonist) was wherever the female protagonist (his great love) was. That line resonated for me, and it's basically been my working definition of "home" ever since.

It just occurred to me that I don't know where my home is. It's probably not here, but I don't know where it is. I do know that this is home for the kids, and they matter more than anything I want or think I need now.

Everything I will do will be focused on keeping them here and doing what I need to do to stay healthy enough and strong enough to provide for them here.
