Sanctuary

The love of Man, the love of God are practised here; there is a quiet, not just a lack of clamor, that is sacred. It is a safe place to reflect upon the blessings of your life, a still-point in a world of stark uncertainty, and when everything seems lost it is your home.

Keith, this is another beauty from your "pen of pens". It is true our home should be our sanctuary. It is what I strive for and will hopefully achieve one way or another. Lovely verse! Love, Robin

Keith my sanctuary is deep in the woods, so deep you cannot hear anything but nature. It refreshes and restores me. Great job. Laurie
