Having a home in the heart of nature is an underrated blessing. It is one of life's most joyful experiences. Spending quality time with your family, laughing and learning about them all over again, can be a joyful experience. It is the perfect time to have meaningful conversations, revisit memories, and unwind.

But what makes it so special? Is it the absence of the city bustle? Or the mesmerizing scenery that unifies hearts? Let's find out!

Similar to our surroundings, our relationships with people are constantly evolving, from developing friendships with people in day-to-day life to sometimes seeing those friends turn into strangers. But one thing that remains unchanged is that we occasionally return to these connections. Similar to the cyclic nature of the environment, an individual's interactions with family and friends also form a recurring cycle of events. The atmosphere, with its boundless potential for healing and self-repair, persists in providing a safeguard, much like a family member who, despite numerous disagreements, remains willing to care for you once more.

The Resemblance of Nature with Human Relationships

Similar to our surroundings, our relationships with people are in constant evolution.

From developing friendships with people in day-to-day life to seeing them turn into strangers as they grow out of it. No one is expected to stay the same in life's terrain. But one thing that remains unchanged is that we keep returning to these connections occasionally.

Like the environment that moves in a cycle, an individual's interactions with their family and friends are also a cycle of events.

The environment has an unlimited potential to heal and repair itself. Even after drastic changes, it continues to provide for its dwellers and protect them, just like the family member who, even after many tussles, is willing to take care of you again.

Nature's Way of Soothing People

When you feel the loneliest, nature is with you. The rustling of leaves, roaring of the sea, and birds chirping in the mighty sky all indicate its presence and love for you.

Lydia was overlooking it all because of her busy city life. She was growing sick of running by the clock. Although she was physically present in New York City, her mind felt misplaced.

Lydia's bond with her family was like that, too. At the rifting edge of the family, she often found herself bitter about her relationship with her mother. The silence and avoidance of meaningful conversations built a void between her and her mother.

But with time, this bitterness changes into empathy when she returns from New York City to spend Christmas with her maternal family. While spending time with her grandmother, aunt, mother, and brother, she realizes the internal battles, regrets, and troubles they hide from each other.

Coming Home to Nature and Family

Together, they embark on a redemptive journey with the healing power of nature and mend their relationship as a family. “Coming Home” is a meaningful family saga focusing on nurturing your connection with nature to save your relationships. Authored by Kay Tobler Liss, this contemplative and deep story fosters a sense of respect and love toward the environment.

Come home to your family, come home to the memories buried deep within your heart, embrace your reality, and accept your past. Learn from Lydia's journey in Kay Tobler Liss's "Coming Home."
