What does "come home" mean to you?
It means coming back after being a tireless wanderer, and at some point you just have a nature alarm to go back there, to a place where you can be yourself. No touch-up, no impressing anybody else but yourself, no pretending, no hiding; just you existing as you are, and you are comfortable being who you are there. That's home.
Pulang ke rumah. Pulang ke tempat paling aman dan nyaman, pulang yang bikin kita tentram di dalamnya, pulang untuk melepas penat dan beristirahat. Rumah di sini bukan cuma bangunan. Tapi, memiliki seseorang yang dicintai dan disayangi juga rumah. Dimana ketika bersamanya akan bahagia. Gitu.
Coming home simply implies returning home, although the concept of “home” is a very broad one. We can fully be ourselves at home since it is a safe sanctuary and a comfortable place. It could also be a person with whom you have a strong sense of security. All in all, it is a phrase that conveys the feeling that anything you have lost or left will likely be recovered.
A good question. For me, 'come home' means when I feel safe and comfortable. It can be a person or a place. When the world goes silence and bringing us serene in a way like words never could, then at that moment all the burdens that I feel slowly fade away.
