Whether you're going stir-crazy from being inside all the time or secretly enjoying not having to leave the house, all of us are spending a lot more time at home.
Home — it's an idea charged with emotions. Depending on who you ask or even what day you ask them, home can be brimming with laughter and warmth, or streaked with disappointment, anger, and sadness. Our homes leave deep impacts on us, whether they're the houses we live in or the communities we've built for ourselves elsewhere.
Take a moment to reflect on the word "home." What does it mean to you? What makes your home different from someone else's? What experiences and memories in your home have left an impact on you? And finally — how has the pandemic changed your idea of home?
