Rituals of Home

“When tea becomes ritual, it takes it’s place at the heart of our ability to see greatness in small things. Where is beauty to be found? In great things that, like everything else, are doomed to die, or in small things that aspire to nothing, yet know how to set a jewel of infinity in a single moment?” – Muriel Barbery

Having moved so many times over the years, I’ve become aware of the need to settle in, yet at the same time bring a bit of the past and ourselves to our new homes. In this process the little moments of joy we find and actions we repeat become like rituals, creating a code that builds a sense of belonging. Rituals that make a house our home.
