Home word, the shortest word of our dictionary. It is not included in everything, nor is it involved; like water, like reason, like work, like a trace… The home reserves space for what will come. Whatever or whoever decides on him will actually come home and come to his senses. Returning home is returning to yourself. We now hear this sentence from everybody: "Our homes are empty." All the attention is now outside the house, in its splendor, expense and area. Even inside the house, there is very little inward.
 
First we consumed it. Sincerity and sincerity. We are not even aware that we are carrying all the dirt and rust from outside to the house. Someone leaves the house all the time, but no one enters the house with their soul. Our passions, consumer ambition, shopping, lethargic tiredness, vindictive desire and enthusiasm, our mystical insatiability are sometimes transported to our homes by private carriers. The house has no education, its stove is dull, it does not smoke. Unsettled marriages await in the warehouse like a lame table, a broken chair. Lots of people are waiting for the next white train at a station called "tolerance limit". Why are all the trains black?
 
The world is aware of the common pollution, everyone is attracting "Clean Hands Operation" to those who are under their responsibility. We do not even think that the cleaning is permissible and it spreads from place to place. Yesterday, we thought that the one whose hands were dirty is also dirty. Today we come to another point and we say "A person whose house is dirty, his hands are also dirty". Where are our hands contaminated with dirt? We could not manage to dress our house, which is our second dress, properly. The house is no longer a covering for people. We ignored that the house was also included in the veil. Everyone sat in our house except ourselves. Global markets, the consumer industry, the culture of superstition, heavy and bulky items devoid of aesthetics, children fitted with silencers, and our crippled memories sit all over our house. We do not belong to the house we live in, even as a bedside table.
 
Now it is up to us to throw the responsibility to the school and the teacher, as we are checking the house. We continue to bend even the word of our ancestors, "Everyone sweep in front of their own door first". As if whatever was in the name of dirt was in front of the door and the house didn't need it. Perhaps this was true for a time. But today's updated version of the phrase is better suited to saying: "If everyone sweeps their own house, the whole world will stay clean."
 
We should start cleaning our house with all its parts as soon as possible. A person whose house is clean will have clean hands, a clean hand will have a clean tongue, and a clean tongue will have a clean head and heart. We will get up from wherever we fell. We were hit by the family, we were shocked in our rooms, we were shot at our house. Whatever happened happened after that. While we were away, global pleasure and speed engineers entered our home and made discoveries. They changed our whole house layout and curriculum. After a while, we agreed to this. There was no need for them to enter our homes secretly, we personally summoned them and rewarded them. Now we cannot be sure of the value of anything without their touch. We lost our sense of appreciation to others. Our sensitivity to refusal has already gone out of our way. "Where have you been, son?" we were asking once. Our son was bending his head forward in an embarrassed and uneasy way and looking for an excuse. Nobody is home now. The head of the house is not at home. Because the house is not at home. Homework is a thing of the past. Homework is available if home. The sense of responsibility is directly proportional to homework ethics.
 
We kept telling for years that houses have a window to the world and a door to the street. However, we never remembered that the countryside we call the outside and the outside world also needs a window. Since the doors and windows of the world are not open to the home and the family, we thought the outside was our home. What we experience is, in its simplest terms, an inner-outer dualism. The main thing is not to open the house to the world, but to make the world home.
 
If the age of being a house owner decreases as the marriage age increases, it means that there is a dire dilemma. Marriage is the art of welcoming the sky home. It fits in the heart of a person who fits in the rooms, and is to prove this by living. The crowded uniqueness of marriages is more or less what the crowded loneliness of the house is today. Whatever happened to the house, it was the beginning of the marriage. You see, neither marriages nor married ones can fit into the house. The house does not have a single consolation to say for the married. Because the world is a huge shopping center and the marriage institution functions as a section in this shopping mall. I said it wrong, there is no such thing as duty. Just so that the department can vouch for and support other departments. Just as we wash our hands dozens of times a day, we must also wash our homes. By keeping the heart of the house clean, refreshing its intentions and washing the hands of the house, which reaches to happiness. After all, the hand of the house is happiness.
