There was a time when I thought beautiful places had to be destinations. The kind you planned for, saved for, or traveled to. But the older I get, the more I realize some of the places that stay with us are much quieter than that.
A garden tucked into the middle of the city. A familiar walking path. A bench in the shade. The places that ask nothing from us except that we slow down long enough to notice them.
Maybe that’s why the idea of home has changed for me over the years. It’s not just an address or the walls we live inside. It’s also the places that bring us a little more peace, a little more perspective, and gently remind us who we are.
Today, this was one of those places.
