Status Updates From The Big Rock Candy Mountain...

‘’There was somewhere, if you knew where to find it... some Big Rock Candy Mountain where life was effortless and rich and unrestricted... where something could be had for nothing."

‘There was somewhere, if you knew where to find it, some place where money could be made like drawing water from a well, some Big Rock Candy Mountain where life was effortless and rich and unrestricted and full of adventure and action, where something could be had for nothing.’

This is a long book. Quite long. But really touches on a point that I’ve been reflecting on myself recently. What is home? How do we decide where we lay our head at night for the rest of our lives? Is it the people, the memories, the culture, where you were born, where you were raised, where you feel most yourself? Or is it a combination of all of these things? Sometimes you miss home while also being at home.
