Never make your home in a place, the old man had said, too lazy in the spring warmth to do more than wag a finger. Make a home for yourself inside your own head. You'll find what you need to furnish it-memory, friends you can trust, love of learning, and other such things. Morgenes had grinned. That way it will go with you wherever you journey. You'll never lack for a home-unless you lose your head, of course . .
The old man shares valuable wisdom about finding a true sense of home that transcends physical locations. He advises against becoming complacent in a place just because it feels comfortable in a fleeting season. Instead, he encourages the creation of a mental sanctuary filled with essential elements like memories, trustworthy friends, and a passion for learning. This perspective suggests that true belonging comes from within rather than from external surroundings.
Morgenes, echoing this sentiment, smiles at the idea that such an internal home allows you to carry your sense of belonging wherever life takes you. The notion underscores the importance of mental resilience and adaptability. As long as you nurture your inner world, you will have a home no matter the circumstances, as long as you remain grounded and true to yourself.
