While trying to rename our RV blog from RV Poetry to something that would not scare away non-poets, I reread my short poem, Destination Unknown, found in it’s entirety here. I had remarked on the post, Rvers many days travel to unknown places, yet they remain home in their hearts.
Today I took some exception to it. The words, “remain home in their hearts”, as most of you realize, is referring to home being where your heart is – and I don’t dispute that. However, in reading RVer blogs and meeting a few RVers at shows, I concluded many RVers do not just “remain home in their hearts” — they extend their homes outside of themselves to let others in.
Think of it almost as a mother’s love swelling to encompass more and more children or an animal lover’s heart swelling to bring in more and more animals. The world becomes the RVers home and extended family.
It is not that other people are not capable of doing that or don’t do it, it is that it appears easier for an RVer to do it than a non-RVer.
Will I find that true once we get out there? Perhaps. Perhaps not
No Instructions Needed
