Elmarie 2003 (Vanderbijlpark)
It's not just a house.
It's a place where you cry, laugh, dance, think.. oh it can go on forever.
It's where you can spend time with yourself and everyone you love-
two legged and four legged.
The center of your memories.
Where you break free from wondering what people think of what you're doing that very moment.
Where you don't feel the annoying need of being liked, the need of simply looking pretty, the need to compare yourself to others.
It's a place that offers peace and time for you to analyze your problems.
Your home is your Sanctuary, your Office, your Doctor, your Studio, your Photo Album.
Oh, it can truly go on forever.
Because it's home.
