FREE WOMAN Come closer. Look at me. What do you see? Look in my eyes and they wander aimlessly. Afraid to make eye contact. Afraid that you know, the things I once did, the places I’d go. Look at me now. Watch my feet move. Stepping out of abuse and ridicule. Step over concern of my tainted past, and into peace and freedom at last. Watch my hand when I brush my hair back, away from my eyes no longer fearing attack. I’ve stopped tugging at my skirt to keep it lowered down. I’ve stopped sitting in the back, to avoid the sneers and the frowns. Look at my children. They’re bright and bold? Embracing the warmth of a mother once cold. Come close.

When you walk into your home, is there a place just for you - a space that has special personal items that you enjoy looking at ever so often? Even if you live alone, have you created a sacred place that you can go to and wind down from the challenges of the day? If not, then it is time to create your space of peace. Take a moment to walk around each room of your home. Start with the front of the house and work your way to the back or up the stairs. Take in every window, corner, the furniture, the organization, the disarray; take it all in and create a mental picture.
