I came to appreciate the safety and support that living with family can provide. I also came to realize that keeping a home is simply more important to me than anything else and provides the meaning and foundation for all other pursuits-- academic and otherwise.<br /><br />Fortunately, my family has allowed me to stay at home. We went through a very difficult time during which it did not seem that it would be possible for me to live at home, and yet we have come through that, and circumstances have allowed me to remain here.<br /><br />I am so glad!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9105226992849497642.post-41835030287899375432010-10-20T09:18:10.815-04:002010-10-20T09:18:10.815-04:00Hi Bekah,
