I bought a new set of coasters today, a small but meaningful way to protect the furniture I have worked so hard to afford and to bring into my home. It is a reminder to value and care for what we have, ensuring that our possessions last as long as possible and continue to serve us well over the years. Dhanteras is about stewardship and the respect we show for the material world that supports our physical existence every single day of our lives. I hope you treat your home and your belongings with love and that they bring you comfort for many, many years to come. ๐ต
