"Where is Nature leading you?" Marcus Aurelius asks himself in his meditations....for me Nature is leading to hopefully new and better beginnings. M.A. mentions a lot about the ruling part within us, which I feel relates to the foundational core of our Being and that place is awfully close to the infinite.
To feel at home in myself was something I have felt before but it has not always been a constant. Lately I can really feel it. That I have this core, my true underlying self that persists no matter what life may throw at me. This type of feeling is one of those won by hard work and uncomfortable circumstances - description of life?
Art definitely helps; Zen has been useful, Marcus - illuminating, but dependable loving friends and family are indispensable to knowing the home of myself where I feel comfortable and free to be me.
Again from Marcus "...defend your freedom every hour of every day with kindness, simplicity and self-respect."
