Seeing your photo of that serene and pretty room reminded me of something I read years ago. It was in a book of advice to monks, by one of the old desert fathers of the Orthodox Church: "Keep your cell as though it were heaven." I think your thoughtful spot has given you a head start.

ReplyDeleteThis is such a beautiful place for writers to hang out and create!
ReplyDeleteThe yard and gardens and larger property is stunning this time of year too. I just haven't gotten around to taking photos yet!
ReplyDeleteArlene, it is both cozy and expansive with the huge windows and views of the gardens, sky, and mountain across the river!
