Comments on Rule Six, there is NO … Rule Six!… by hairshirthedonist

Am I really going to be the first to mention that love makes a house a home? I've read that in more than one kitchen. Come to think of it, I've also read that home is where the heart is on a few house walls. I guess that logically means that love puts the heart in a house, though I've never seen it put that way in a cutely decorated kitchen.

I felt oddly at home while visiting London many years ago. I haven't been back since. Aside from leaving a lot of people behind, my lack of UK citizenship, and the high cost of living there ... eh, never mind.

Seriously, though, I immediately felt like I belonged there.

Someone once said, “‘Home’ is where you bury your bone.”

Roger Waters wrote and sang a variation on that, the only one I was previously familiar with:

So, I don't feel alone on the weight of the stone
Now that I've found somewhere safe to bury my bone
And any fool knows a dog needs a home
A shelter from pigs on the wing
