My Little Sanctuary

Do you ever wonder why certain places mean so much to certain people? When I think of my bedroom, I realize why some people are touchy about who goes in their room or who has been touching things in their home, it is because those things are important to them and may have some meaning. Places like my bedroom are places where we can relax and be comfortable and I think that is why it is important to people, because we can be ourselves and feel comfortable, we can also just sit down and rest our bones and relax.

Another important reason is we can go there when we want privacy, we can just shut our door, maybe even lock it, and tell everyone in our household not to bother us. Also our rooms hold most of our personal belongings and those things are important to us and we do not want anyone else to touch them or in some cases go near them. The reason my bedroom is so important to me is because my room holds all of my personal belongings, which are very important to me. When we are tired or not feeling the best we can go to our room, shut our door, and lay down and relax.

Maybe even turn on some music or read a book or magazine. My bed is where I like to retreat to when I want to relax the most. I have a wooden bedroom set. It has a queen size bed, a nightstand, and two dressers. They all match. My comforter is a silky metallic teal that is extremely thick, soft, and warm with many pillows that are the same tone as the comforter. My bed is where I take many naps and relaxing sleep filled nights that I love. As you enter my bedroom all you see is darkness because I leave my blinds closed all the times.

I feel in peace with everything in dimly lit places. When you step inside the first thing you see is my aquarium which I am very proud of because none of my fish have died yet. As you can tell I love earth tone colors that is why I have painted my walls a light brown color and have many wood accent decorations. The smell of my room is the smell of myself. When I enter my room, it smells like home to me and comforts me. It is a clean, warm scent that is utterly inviting. My room is small but tidy and is always kept very neat.

I keep everything in its precise setting, in order for it to be easy for me to get to my belongings. If anyone were to misplace one of my things, I would undoubtedly notice it. When I enter my room I hear my radio, which reminds me of a day of listening to music and hanging out with friends. Looking to my left the wall is mainly covered by a large, grand, floor length mirror. When I do my makeup in the morning, my mirror is crispy, cold, and refreshing to the touch as I wipe the smudges of mascara off of it.

Above my mirror is my black and white clock. I hear it tick, tock, tick, tock everyday and every night. Below my tick, tock clock is a hand carved wooden decoration. It has three coloured symbols on it. Faith comes first in a rustic, gold. Next is love with a warm, rosy pink, and last is family in a rich, royal blue. I love this wall the most because I can see who I am, where I came from, and who, and what I care most about. I have lots of picture frames sitting in my room with memories that I have made throughout the years.

The decorations in my room help to make me happy when I am in an irritable mood and help tie the room together. My bedroom is my security blanket because it helps me get away from the world. It is my little sanctuary, which is peaceful and quite inviting. After a long day of hard work I just light a candle then I lie in my comfortable plush bed and sleep listening to the sound of running water that my stereo has to offer. My room brings peace to my life from the stress of life itself.
