Welcome to my newest guided meditation, At Home in the Transition. Home is in-born, it's instinct. It's a place, a memory, a feeling, a whiff of belonging that can grow into a real longing for one's own, for one's people, for people period.

Having chosen this path, we get kicked in the stomach on a regular basis. It's just the way it is when you take the chance of asking for something where you may be turned down or coldly rejected.
