thank you so much for this article, you really hit home, literally.

as a kid, i turned a cupboard into a doll house, with everything inside made by myself. hidden from sight, this was my sanctuary, the only place where i could create and control the narrative. it was empowering and saved my sanity.

making objects and creating spaces - that's what i've done ever since.

what a great article (essay? however you want to call it)

Thank you so much for writing-and for sharing

I'd add to it only this -sometimes, the only place you can somewhat control in an awful chaos is your home...even if it is a temporary place. Temporary and sometimes as small as a bunk bed
