<strong>THE</strong>RE’S NO PLACE LIKE HOME<br />
FINDING A PLACE<br />
PURPOSE…The reason for which something is done.<br />
LEADERSHIP…The capacity of someone to lead.<br />
ACCESS…The right or ability of approaching or entering.<br />
CHOICE…An option; a decision; an opportunity to choose or select.<br />
ENGAGEMENT…Connection or attachment.<br />
The essence of PLACE is to be 100% present and plugged into what is<br />
important. PLACE pulls together facts and stories to synchronize our history<br />
with where we are today and helps to communicate relevance. We can begin to<br />
establish our PLACE in the community by taking the time to volunteer with<br />
groups that interest us and to determine the needs and interests of the people<br />
around us.<br />
DISCOVERING YOUR PLACE<br />
Look for historic signs & landmarks when you travel.<br />
Listen to, read, and watch autobiographical stories.<br />
Make time to do and learn something different each day.<br />
Visit a library, heritage trail, museum or national park.<br />
Support local, non-profit community organizations.<br />
Where we are is not who we are; it merely provides the background for our<br />
story. The notion of being at home can be both a mindset and an actual location.<br />
Each day we can shape our surroundings and our relationships to create the<br />
type of life we want.<br />
