Sanctuary

Everyone needs a place they can call their sanctuary, a place that the feel safe, a place where they can escape their troubles.
Usually it is a quiet place, where you can be alone, however, sometimes it's a more public place, Some will just like it to be quiet, while others might like music (it really just depends on your personality I think).
Im glad that I can say my church Rock Bridge Community Church is probably one of my sanctuaries, not just because it's a church (and your sanctuary doesn't have to be a church) I just feel like the environment there is very welcoming. I go there to read or to just sit and for a little while everything fades away. I feel that I belong there.
Some people will say they have other people who are their sanctuary, now I'm not saying that's wrong, but it would be hard for me to fully trust someone like that (other than god of course). I do believe that there are people in my life that help keep me anchored, they probably don't know they do though. Those kinda people I see as pillars that help keep you up, they aren't your sanctuary, but they are a vital part of your stability system.
Sanctuaries are nice places that shine with light that pierces through whatever darkness is shrouding around you.
And I'm glad that I have a couple.
