My mind
was swirling with new innovative ideas. Perhaps a pillow room…after all I have
plenty of those. It could be the super cool lounge room that’s strictly
B.Y.O.P. or bring your own pillow! A haven designed for fun and laughter and
movie watching. OR, a dance studio! Now we are talking, a place to shimmy and
shake where jazz hands rule and those unwanted calories are shunned. Oh I know,
a furniture painting workshop, a room devoid of other furniture that might accidentally
get painted or tainted. A place to let the creative juices flow and finally try
out some of the refurbishing techniques I had found and doggy eared.
My heart soared as reality
dawned! The apartment wasn’t just a place to live or decorate. It was even greater.
It was a place to dream. How fitting. A beautiful and perfect gift given to me
by the Father of Heavenly lights who does not change like shifting shadows. I
felt like a kid again, given a box that soon would become a spaceship to the
moon, a pirate’s plundered treasure, or a tunnel to the other side of the
world. I’m not sure how much joy can fill a heart but I think in the moments
and years to come I might just find out.
