Building a home as sanctuary
A home, a place to find sanctuary, to unfurl the effort often required to negotiate life in the world.
To be with loved ones. To prepare a meal, walk barefoot, naked…unwatched…
To not be invaded by the world through endless news cycles.
To think, read, write, dance, play, laugh…
To be with nature…a garden, plants, birds…
To sink into a bed, to disappear into sleep without fear.
A home as sanctuary can be built with simple modesty.
In a world of the increasingly displaced, the privilege of a home as sanctuary is a daily prayer of gratitude.
