Where do you feel safe? When? How?

Safety isn’t an assured right.

It’s one that requires struggle.

Safety is different from comfort.

Comfort is a luxury, while safety is often life’s only necessity.

I feel safe at home.

I feel safe in the company of friends.

I feel safe when I’m alone.

I feel safe when I can think*.

Being alone is one of the times where you don’t know if you’re safe or sorry.

Safety is never guaranteed, but it is the sensation you feel when it’s all alright.

Safety is a condition of our grandest ambitions.

I often feel safe in my own company, but only when I can think.

In times of stress, I can’t think.

I feel vulnerable.

Thinking keeps me active, more than any gym workout could ever.

Safety is something I value.

More than most things.

I feel safe when I’m with you.

Safe
