Plush
When you stay in a fancy hotel, the difference really is in the plushness of the beddings and towels, the requisite taste in furniture and fittings, the fresh smell of the room and the controlled lighting and temperature.
It all seems like it was designed for you and for that moment, it is yours. Except that it really is not. It is only rented for a while. No matter how long that while is, you will check out one day and someone else will feel just as special.
Why can we not design our homes to feel and look just like fancy hotels. Everything in the fancy hotel is available for sale in the market. Why do we tone it down at home and look forward to a break in a fancy hotel?
The truth is, there is no good reason. Some people actually invest and bring the luxury home. Most people don’t. Most people would rather pay a premium for some nights in what will never be theirs, than pay a premium at home.
Money like time, enhances whatever it is spent on.
Today, consciously choose to make your home luxurious. Make your home premium. Invest in all that you are wowed about in a fancy hotel, in your home. Then you will see, that truly, the treasures that seemed far and scarce, are actually available for your experience, daily.

Listen, rise, and have no fear
Matthew 17:1-9
And after six days Jesus took with him Peter and James and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain apart. And he was transfigured before them, and his face shone like the sun, and his garments became white as light. And behold, there appeared to them Moses and Eli’jah, talking with him. And Peter said to Jesus, “Lord, it is well that we are here; if you wish, I will make three booths here, one for you and one for Moses and one for Eli’jah.” He was still speaking, when lo, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.” When the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces, and were filled with awe. But Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.” And when they lifted up their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus only. And as they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Tell no one the vision, until the Son of man is raised from the dead.”
Homily:
A voice from the cloud said, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to him.”
Jesus came and touched them, saying, “Rise, and have no fear.”
Listen, rise, and have no fear.
