Is Your Home Healing or Hurting You?

A L O H A !

" Society is like a stew. 

If you don't stir it up every once in a while

then a layer of scum

floats to the top. "

" All my life through, 

the new sights of Nature

made me rejoice like a child. "

that makes you feel

that now

is the best time of the year. "

contentment the greatest wealth,

faithfulness the best relationship.

On my morning walk,

a few days after moving ashore

(after 20 years on our boat)

I noticed something interesting:

Where did my morning stiffness go?

I always suspected that living on the water

wasn't really healthy,

the confinement alone

is akin to enforced bed rest.

You sit in one spot,

and move (at best)

a few feet away-

and back.

My (blog invisible) husband

experienced the same thing!

Where did morning's aches GO?

I'm remembering what it's like

to have a kitchen,

flush bathroom,

a real bed - not a 'bunk'

room to breathe!

So it got me thinking:

When is a home

bad for your health?

Is there radon, or pollution?

Are the neighbors - or extreme weather

stressful?

What about the local economy?

Are you financially over-extended

to pay for it?

Or is it SO modest

that you feel jailed

and held back?

(Formerly  Boat) Kitty

is begging for less treats.

I've noticed a slackening

in some of my own cravings too.

I feel upbeat,

healthy and young here.

Is YOUR home healing

or hurting

Y O U?

Makes you wonder.
