Hi Lyndsay, I think it's interesting timing that we both wrote about home on the same day. I agree with you, that much of our society pegs "success" around owning a home. I believe home is where we feel safe, where we feel loved, where we keep and hold our values. It doesn't have to be a physical place, although we are fortunate to have a roof over our heads (you a van room, mine a traditional home roof). It's funny because I have lived in my home for 10 years and our house remodel is beautiful but I am still drawn to the idea of traveling across the country in a van like you! Home is also a place in which we can dream. :)
Hey! Great minds think alike :) I love what you wrote about the internet making us question ourselves. It's so true. You can set yourself wild expectations based on what you have seen online. When we do buy and decorate a home again, I want to try and stay clear of this as much as I can (although that will require immense will power!). Your home is beautiful by the way, totally worth the time taken to make the house your home :)
Thank you! It’s hard! I just practiced a no buy month in February and it’s another reminder of how much crap I invite into my life when I’m not watching it closely
Much love always xxx
