Hearth

Hearth

Definition

The floor of a fireplace, symbolizing the central space of a home.

Interpretation

The heart of home. The hearth is where warmth is shared, meals are made, stories are told. In ancient times, it was fire. Today, it may be a kitchen, a circle of chairs, or simply where attention gathers.

Living Invitation

What is the hearth of your life right now? How do you tend its flame? What gathers around it?
