Goal for the Day: Make Your Home Your Castle

Our homes should be a retreat from the craziness of the world. We take great care in making them comfortable and attractive. Filling our homes with things that please us is a natural part of life. We want to be at ease in our homes. That’s all the more reason to make sure our homes are safe.


Today, take a few moments to make sure that your home is as safe as it can be. Have you recently changed the batteries in your smoke detectors? Is everything in working order? Have you taken steps to ensure that your home is protected against intruders? Every few weeks, do a brief check of your home’s systems to make sure that your home is, truly, your castle—a haven to protect you and keep you comfortable.
