They don't know how to not be close. ...At the end of the evening, we bowed our heads to pray because this had been the culture of our friendship years before, and our need for healing in community brought us wordless to a God so palpable that all we did was sit and cry. All we could say was, "We are broken and you are here." (pp 104-105, Wild in the Hollow)" Because I know you would sit and cry with me even from miles away. I picked up Amber's book last week along with "For the Love" which was added to my already growing pile "Searching for Sunday" "Orphan Train" etc. After reading your post and Amber's words, I think I might have to move her book to the top of the pile! And so much THIS: ""...I wonder if you feel it too --the homesickness for a people and a place to belong, the desire for the freedom and safety you might find there, the thrill and the comfort. Maybe it's what draws you toward the things you hold dear. We often hold on to memories, places, people, and things because there's something of home in them. There's a sense of freedom, the belonging that happens with real friends that makes you feel at home. So many of us are working out a homesickness, and I believe the homesickness is what all our wanderings are all about. We're searching for home --a place of acceptance, a place of fulfillment, and a place of identity. At the basest level, we suspect that home is the place where we'll find our fit, where we'll finally be free." Yes, yes, yes!!! :)<br />Tara Ulrichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619365758739247929noreply@blogger.com
