Every one of us is trying to find our true home. Some of us are still searching. Our true home is inside, but it’s also in our loved ones around us. When you’re in a loving relationship, you and the other person can be a true home for each other. In Vietnamese, the nickname for a person’s life partner is “my home.” So, for example, if a man is asked, “Where is your wife?” he might say, “My home is now at the post office.” If a guest said to the woman, “That meal was delicious; who cooked it?” she might answer, “My home prepared the meal,” meaning “My husband cooked the dinner.”
