Houses have walls, roofs, and floors.
Houses cover us from bad weather:
from wind and rain
from cold and snow,
from sun and heat,
But houses do not cover us from inner weather.
When we walk in through the door,
we bring our inner weather with us:
irritations and frustrations,
envies and jealousies,
resentments and grudges
worries and fears.
To recover,
we go back out
into wind and rain
into cold and snow.
into sun and heat.
