Let your Soul reside in your House


A house becomes home only when it speaks for the one who lives in it, when it expresses what they think and feel. That’s why they say – Feel at home, and that can happen only when there are feelings in the place you live in, or else no matter how expensive the interior decoration is, there won’t be any difference between a hotel room and your house. So just leave all the worries and start making that house or flat your home!

Everything that is in your house must have a purpose. This doesn’t mean that the flowers that cannot be put to any productive use are useless. Their sole purpose is to emit fragrance and make the place beautiful and fresh and that is perfectly done only when they are real flowers. So never use artificial flowers in your house no matter how beautiful or classy they look, for just as the fragrance of real flowers cannot be substituted with that of artificial flowers, the genuinity of a real human being can never be compared with the superficial goodness of a person. Just as nothing expensive jewellery you wear can make you look pretty until you are beautiful inside, nothing big or bright you buy can make your house be your home until its connected to your soul. The same way everything in your house must be able to express your understanding for what you believe in and the imaginative beauty of your hear! Every single thing should be as if it is a miniature of you. There must be a little you in every article placed in those small empty places besides that bright lamp. Let everything in there speak your mind & soul. Be it a big castle, or a small studio apartment, let is speak for you.

One of the most essential parts of a pretty home is that cute little corner where you sit to relax after you are home after a whole tiring day of work and travel. That one corner needs to be the most peaceful place in your house, with dim lights and glimmer of a pretty little lamp and a small bookshelf with just the right kind of couch or beanbag to throw yourself on. And there you go!
Not only the corners or the rooms of the home, but even a small door or a window, it matters as much as that warm and cozy bedroom, that beautiful looking living room or that pretty bathroom does. And one of them is the window. The window, it should be the place where you can, with no doubt or second thoughts, just throw away all your worries and from where the darkness of your life jumps out and makes way for sunshine to come in. Enlighten these windows with your favourite colour of curtains and bright white lights and you’ll never regret just standing at the window sipping your coffee, trust me it won’t be the so called waste of time.

Your kitchen is where you can experiment all you wish and that should be the place that has the most scope for trials. Keep as much useful utensils as needed and no more than that. For a clean kitchen is where prosperity begins. The bedrooms, before entering which you drop all the day’s worries and thoughts and just sleep like a child, where all things are soft and cozy, bright yet dim to not disturb you.


If everything in your house is in sync, you can automatically hear the music of life in it! And if everything in your home calls you back home every time you leave home, its time when life is beautiful! So let your home be a symbol of what you are, a place that tells whose it is as soon as somebody enters there! Love your home and make it speak for you! Be happy and live in a happy place. Keep smiling and make everyone that comes to your home smile! Ciao!
