I was browsing through my email when I came across this question:
'Where is your refuge?'
I sat there in front of the computer for a full minute, thinking of the right answer.
This isn't a particularly hard question to answer.
I am just not the type to dwell on 'sentimental' things.
I suppose my refuge when things are going hay-wire and everything seems to be against me is my room.
My room, despite its huge mosquitoes population, is where I can sit down and think things through.
This is where I sleep, dream and even fantasize.
This is where my collection of worldly possessions are located.
This is where I am taught the lesson of being neat, tidy and clean.
Not only that, when life is in the dumps, when I feel like crap, I step into my room and think to myself:
'At least I have a comfortable room, with electricity and clean water supply.'
'I have the privilege to study and read in my room.'
'I have a proper bed to myself.'
'I have parents who fully support me.'
'I even have a younger sibling to share my room with. I am truly blessed.'
My room is my refuge. Where is your refuge?
