"Une maison n'est pas un foyer à moins qu'elle ne contienne de la nourriture et du feu pour l'esprit ainsi que pour le corps."
— Margaret Fuller

Simplified Meaning:
A house becomes a true home when it provides both physical comfort and mental nourishment. It's not enough to only have things like food and warmth to keep you physically healthy. You also need things that engage your mind and soul, like books, music, or good conversations. Think about how much happier people feel when they share a meal with loved ones, tell stories, or learn something new together. Just like a family gathering around a dinner table not only to eat but also to connect and talk. To apply this idea, surround yourself with things that inspire you and make you think, as well as those that take care of your physical needs. This way, your home will be a place where both your body and mind can thrive.
