"A relatively new phrase making the rounds these days is 'forever
home.' It refers to a new permanent home that is provided for a pet,
usually a cat or dog, which has been rescued from a shelter or some
other facility. The forever home offers loving care and a better future
for the newest member of the family.
"The phrase is also used sometimes to describe the adoption of a child
who has been in foster care and is welcomed by a loving family into a
new, permanent 'forever home.'"
In a recent commentary, Bishop Thomas J. Tobin, of the Diocese of Providence
(RI), reflected on the "forever home" awaiting each of us; an opportunity that should affect the way we live here in "our temporary shelter on earth."
