Marilene Phipps-Kettlewell Continued (Part 2)

“There are times when I feel that I no longer have a home anywhere—homelessness is the acquired state of the exiled—once you have left, you can never return . . .

And there are times when I am in Haïti, and it all feels, so, so singularly familiar, woven so deep in the very fabric of my being, the thread in my skin, the color or my blood, that I know for sure that this is Home.”
