The Home Stretch is a term that originates from horse racing, referring to the final straightaway length of the racecourse between the last turn and the winning post. Enter this Home Stretch: it’s a passage of fulfillment and reflection, running down familiar streets back home of personal landmarks and places from memory. Our Home Stretch doesn’t signal the end, but a transitory space to unbend.
