Write about your dream home.

Well, y’all know I can’t pass this one up, right?!

I write my mantra all the time; it always starts with:

“Live in the mountains.”

All my life, I’ve been surrounded by people, moving, going, fast-paced. Hurry up, get this done. Move, move, move.

And while Florida may not feel as fast-paced as some places, it is ever-growing and it doesn’t seem to be stopping anytime soon.

Especially South Florida.

I’ve never been the type to enjoy being surrounded by people.

I love my solitude.

And even though I love my home now,

I would take a quiet home set in the mountains, surrounded by trees, wildlife, many paths to walk down, and if I’m lucky, some lovely clear and clean water to take a swim in when it’s not too cold!

And a dark sky full of stars and constellations to light up the night.

This would symbolize to me that I’ve made it in life.

Everything else inside the house does not matter, the material goods – that will come after, in time.

(I’m a woman after all, there’s no doubt I can make a house feel like a home).

As long as it’s a sturdy, strong, good house with a solid foundation.

What I need is that blank canvas.

Calm, tranquility, peace.

No worries.
