Where you're originally from.
If you're from a town 20 minutes away from a town you call your hometown now, it's great that you're from there and hopefully you're glad to be from there, but if you're honest with yourself, the town 20 miles away is still your true hometown, that will never change because you can't go back and change it, no matter who in the town you claim believes your heart comes from the same place as theirs, because you aren't telling them the full truth. It doesn't matter what people believe to be true, it matters what is true. No matter what you do for the town you claim, you are not being yourself by claiming a town you're not originally from is your true hometown, your true hometown is where you're originally from, because that is where your heart is originally from, that is where it first started beating. True to life is being true to who you really are, not true to what you want people to see or love. It's better to be hated for who you are than loved or even liked for who you are not.

A hometown haunt is a place in a person’s hometown that holds a special heart in their heart and has a lot of sentimental value.
When I went back to the place where I lived, I began to feel a bit of the hometown haunt coming at me.
