The movie, Lemony Snicket's Series of Unfortunate Events has an awesome message about "creating sanctuary together". The 3 children in the movie discover that no matter what unfortunate events occur - there is always something they can do to make a sanctuary together... I love this closing quote from the movie (below):
“They are the sort of people who know
there is always something…
something to invent…
something to read…
something to bite…
and something to do…
to make a sanctuary together
– no matter how small… “
there is always something…
something to invent…
something to read…
something to bite…
and something to do…
to make a sanctuary together
– no matter how small… “
and last, I will leave you with this poem....
If you long for a Change
Remember that with family n friends,
Remember that with family n friends,
Creating SANCTUARY is key
We all need safe HAVEN
We all need safe HAVEN
So always remember,
There’s always SOMETHING
There’s always SOMETHING
Wishing you all much PEACE and the blessing of SANCTUARY with your loved ones...
