Where Am I From?

Bridget D.


Where am I from?

A question I continuously ponder.

Is it where I was born?

Is it where I’ve lived the longest?

Is it where my family resides after retirement?

I never know how to answer the question.


Will I ever be able to find a definite answer to that question?

Will I find a place that makes me say I’m from there?

Who knows.

That’s military life, I guess.


Regardless of where I’m from, I’ll always have a home.

A home where I feel happy.

A home where I feel loved.

A home where I feel safe.

Home isn't where you're from.

Home is where the heart is.

Where my family is.

And that will never, ever change.
