What do you do behind those drawn curtains or closed blinds?

Is your home a sanctuary?

Or a battle ground?

Are there eggshells all around?

I hope you have peace in your private space.
I hope it is an area where all your troubles melt away
and gives you strength to endure another day.

I hope you are doing something to improve your well-being.

Listening to music,
Writing,
Exercising,

Having amazing conversations

Being loved in every way possible.

If you are not at peace
If you are always having to be prepared for anything

Then…

I wish for you the courage and opportunity to change your circumstances.
To be able to do whatever needs to be done.

So that you will be in a truly safe space.

Please start now.

Even the smallest step will eventually lead you to your destination.
