Sharing The Better Part Of You

Sharing the Better Part of You

How often do you invite others to share in the delights of your home?

If you’re like most, your home is one of your favorite places in the world. Wouldn’t you want to share your favorite place with others? It gives them a chance to see you in your natural habitat, to learn more about what you love.

Hospitality is one of the best ways you can honor and celebrate other people. You tell them to kick off their shoes and offer them a nice beverage. You wait on them like they’re a VIP at some posh restaurant. You show off your favorite décor or give them a tour of a scrapbook or photo album. You share personal stories of life in your family home.

But don’t share your home only with family and friends. Honor your neighbors and new acquaintances with this gift as well. By inviting them into your house, you’re honoring them with the better part of you.

The ornaments of your house will be the guests who frequent it.
