home is in your body

When someone asks me, “where do you call home?”I like to say that home is in my body. While that may seem like an abstract and cop-out answer that lets me avoid talking about my relationship with home, it actually allows me to better understand my relationship with home, and to reimagine where home can exist and how it can feel. And it’s not to say that home can’t be a place, but to me, it’s more about how your body feels in that place. And while this is a topic I could’ve chosen to write about, being a writer myself, I decided to make a playlist [instead]: a playlist of songs that make me feel at
home in my body. Each song feels like a new home to me, and I hope you can find a home (or a few) in some songs on this playlist <3
