In a world that often seems to be careening out of control, there is something comforting about living in an old home where the only thing that changes is you. That's what it's like here in Ed's and my 100 year-old house. Paint is chipped, floors need sanding, wallpaper is peeling, the upholstery on our 42 year-old couch is worn, but the roof is new, the wiring and plumbing are in fine shape, the outside shingles are nicely painted, the foundation is sound...and it fits us like an old shoe. When I think of those who have no home or have been displaced due to war and natural disasters, or are in danger of being evicted for nonpayment of rent or mortgage, I realize just how fortunate we are. Everyone deserves a home--it is a human right.
