I agree with you on the fact that we all need a Sanctuary, somewhere to run to when we are tired physically, mentally, and even spiritually.
Some hobbies and passions serve as Sanctuary, the family can't be omitted for many and I find so much comfort in nature whenever I am mentally stressed. Our sanctuaries might be different but their impact on us is the same, they help us get refreshed.
It is astonishing how it all is balanced somehow. I think you just inspired me to another article, thank you for that.
The balance of things and how the mindset of some people urges them to balance other things out if they are out of balance. All that as part of the balancing process.
