A Thousand Word Thursday


This is the living room of my boyfriend’s family. There are a lot of stories and interesting conversations started in here. After dinner, we all like to watch TV, talk, communicateand have dessert here. To me, a home is like a story, and just like the best story, the best spaces in a home are filled with meaning and purpose. A good story grabs us and takes us somewhere interesting. I feel like this living room did the same for me as I got to know my boyfriend’s family.

A home can provide a sense of security and belonging that goes beyond four walls and a roof. We each have a story to tell and the spaces where we gather are part of those stories. I think our homes, like the best booksremind us of thepast and present and give us the space to ponder our futureI believe ourmemories of the past and our hopes for the future are recorded in the verybricks from which our homes are built.
