Home is where the heart is

Our homes are our habitat.  They give us shelter from the elements, they provide us with a personal lair that we can decorate as we please, and they offer a place to connect with loved ones without the intrusion of strangers. Take some time to thank you home today.  That is right, I am talking about chores.  But think of chores as love actions for your sweet space where you lay your head, walk around nude, and cook delicious meals. Dust those spots that rarely feel your touch, vacuum under the seat where you graze on munchies, scrub the toothpaste from the sink that greets you each morning. Be mindfull as you polish and mop.  What do I have to be grateful of here in my home? What aspects of this structure bring me happiness and hope?

What makes your special space so important to you?

  2. I love the feeling of coming "home" every evening after a long day of work. Coming home to the familiarity and security. And also my kitty Ruby :)

  3. My home allows me to decompress; it's my fortress of solitude, within its walls I do what's needed to take care of me----after spending the day helping others. My greatest growth happens at home, it's where I study, meditate and pray.

    Hope you have a great weekend!

    1. Yes, it is imperative for you to have that balance after giving so much of yourself to others every day. Nice work Pablo!
