Whenever life gets tough, I want to know I have a place to go where I can feel soothed and consoled. Realizing that I have a safe, strong shelter from the storms of life is comforting. Therefore, I strive to have a home where I find solace.
As soon as I move in to a new home, I begin to think about ways to create soothing spaces throughout. I believe that one of the most necessary purposes my home serves is to provide me with a place of respite.
At the end of a busy or particularly challenging workday, I look forward to returning to my haven. My home is peaceful, consoling, and makes me feel better.
Finding solace at home is important to me because I believe that everyone deserves a safe, secure spot to return to after a hard day. I know that I need somewhere to go that helps me revive and rejuvenate.
The peace that my home provides helps me get ready to face the world again.
Like a butterfly’s cocoon, my home embraces me with stillness, security and safety. Also like the butterfly, I take the time to rest and grow. Then, I can go forward to meet the next day with renewed vigor.
Today, I am pleased that my home provides me peace and comfort. I continue to create and sustain places that provide solace in my home because this is important to me.
