You Should Thank Your Home

In the spirit of Thanksgiving... here's why!

Yes, I think you should thank your home. Humor me and hear me out on this.

Inside your home you let your guard down, let your hair down and are your truest self there. When it's time to move onto your next home, you owe it to yourself to acknowledge the space where you lived all those daily moments that made up your time there, whether it was a year of your apartment lease or 30 years of mortgage payments. 

A lot happened within those walls during that time. As time changes us all, you are a changed person from when you first walked over the threshold. When it comes time to move on there are a lot of emotions that we may or may not realize at the time. I believe if you take a moment to acknowledge this, you are better set to face your new home and all the life and change that comes with it.

So yes, thank your home for holding the space for you always.

The grainy photo at the top of this post shows my husband and I in front of our very first apartment, Lakewood CO circa 2000. Jeff made a turkey for Christmas here and we sat on folding chairs. The beauty of this place was the tiny glimpse of the Rocky Mountain foothills you could see from the complex parking lot. It still holds a place in our hearts and is a home we look back on with fond memories. What's something you will never forget about your first home?
