Ayla's Cave

“Who could deny that privacy is a jewel? It has always been the mark of privilege, the distinguishing feature of a truly urbane culture. Out of the cave, the tribal teepee, the pueblo, the community fortress, man emerged to build himself a house of his own with a shelter in it for himself and his diversions. Every age has seen it so. The poor might have to huddle together in cities for need’s sake, and the frontiersman cling to his neighbors for the sake of protection. But in each civilization, as it advanced, those who could afford it chose the luxury of a withdrawing-place.”

~ Phyllis McGinley

    Very timely creation for me. I have really been battling with the value of privacy. I think that privacy mis used is perhaps one of the most damaging aspects of society. So many people seem to want to hide their fears and insecurities from others. This is fine but in my opinion only fine if we work to cleanse our insecurities. I believe many people project strength and become great actors. However their inner turmoil goes to others like silent devils. Those around them feel the negativity but have no idea that it is emanating from within the wonderful actors in their midst.
