Home as Sanctuary


A house is not a home unless it
contains food and fire
for the mind as well as the body.
- Benjamin Franklin

A house is made of walls and beams;
a home is built with love and dreams.
- Anonymous

The ache for home lives in all of us,
the safe place where we can go as we are
and not be questioned.
- Maya Angelou

Home is our sanctuary, where we:
relax into being ourselves,
play with our inner child,
paint the walls green and pink,
dig in the dirt,
grow something,
love somebody else,
love ourselves even more,
snuggle with a warm blanket on a Sunday afternoon,
hang "go away" on the door whenever we want,
clean and tidy often... or never,
launch from and return to,
are truly ourselves.
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie

Home is where the heart is.
- Pliny the Elder
