Where Are You From

This is a question that I get asked a lot.  My answer is now “Tennessee”. I consider TN my home.  But, once answered, that questions is often followed by either a comment of “You don’t sound like you are from Tennessee” or the question that they really want to ask, “But, where are you really from?”
Again I say, I am from Tennessee.  True I was born in Massachusetts and spent most of my life in Rhode Island.  But, now I am a Tennessean.  Tennessee is my home by choice, if not by birth.
