In what ways can home be a nostalgic connection to one’s past as well as a new space we create for ourselves in the present?

Home doesn't necessarily have to be the literal building, it can be the people you grew up with and the experiences shared as you grow. Revisiting that can cause nostalgia by rekindling those old memories, and can be a space for ourselves in the present because you can look back and see everything you've overcome; everything you've been through to make you who you are today. Those experiences can also be reflected upon to better who you are in the present, so in the future you're an even better person than currently.

It could bring back memories, and it could remind you of things that make you happy. We create a happy and positive space for ourselves in the present too.
