Where Love, Safety, and Balance Live. Loh#273

So with how technology has become a part of almost everything we do these days. I believe that creating an optimal home environment is just about balance rather than perfection, however we see it, technology isn't a bad thing, I will never say that it is , you see our phones, laptops, the internet etc, these things have made life really easy for us people. We learn faster, communicate better , most of us even work from our houses. But then at the same time, too many things can take away the simple joy of family connection. There's a saying my mom always quotes, "Too Much Of Everything Is A Disease". So now for me an optimal home is a place where technology exists but it doesn't take away our lives or control our lives.

In my kind of home, gadgets will be used with sense,not in a strict kind of way, but in a very reasonable, there should be times to use phone and times to drop it, actually I like the idea of my family sitting together with each other and just conversing one on one, like, sit, gist, laugh, without anyone staring at any screen, it's not something that should be forced on anybody, but then it should be encouraged, because the best conversation that you can have as a family is when nobody is scrolling.

Another thing for me is safety. A home should be a place where both adults and children feel safe, like simple things like keeping sharp objects out of children's reach, covering electric sockets, fixing naked wires that are exposed in the house,and also making sure that any harmful substances are stored properly. Little efforts like this can prevent big issues, you know a home where children can come and go freely without someone shouting "drop that thing" every two seconds.

Being organised also is a major thing about creating a good home environment, when a place is scattered and dirty, see it affects one's mood without you even realising it, having a place, a home where things are kept in their proper places. A very neat space, not necessarily a show house kind of thing, it doesn't have to be perfect, but at least it should be a liveable environment. Everyone in the house should know how to clean up their space, even the children, this teaches them how to be responsible even at their young age and seriously it makes life very easy for everyone.

Also I think children should have their play space, not everyone requires monitoring, I'm not saying they shouldn't be supervised, nope, I'm saying a bit of freedom should be given to them, because this can also help them grow. A corner where they can just be the kids that they are, if it's to read, colour, draw, etc. yes, I believe they should imagine, create and learn in their own space.

Also communication is another thing, a home / environment where people can freely communicate their feelings in the house without restriction, children can tell their parents things when they are in the wrong and the adults too can admire when the are tired , this way everyone knows how it is for each other, and nobody is walking on eggshells around themselves.

So the opportunity that I see in a home is quite simple, but yet meaningful, opportunities for growth, learning, self expression, an environment where talents can be noticed , discovered and also encouraged, be it anything it is.

And at the end of the day and optimal home is not about having a big house or something , or having it stocked with the latest gadgets, it is about creating a space that's filled with love, safety , understanding and also balance, where technology supports life and not recreates it, a home where family feels like family and seriously this is enough.
