Welcome! Be My Guest






Welcome to
Innate2Decorate:
Ode to the Room!
You're invited to join me on my perpetual journey of design thoughts, dreams, and inspirations. 



THE GUEST HOUSE

 
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

Not that you wouldn't notice but; doesn't the rug look similar to the cover art?

Guest Worthy Read

Leave this on the bedside table and you are guaranteed an interesting chat at breakfast. Don't forget the mimosas or bloody mary's
