This is the time of year for visiting stately homes. I’m the kind of person who is always intrigued by the rooms which are not open to the general public. I want to know what is behind those locked doors and to learn more about the owners. Of course, I can’t; they’re private.
When I once visited one of the mercy ships I was allowed to go into the private places because I was friendly with a member of the crew. I felt quite smug as I was able to see what others in my party were not able to see. And yes, it was fascinating.
I believe that when I get to heaven there won’t be any private areas or forbidden spaces. I will be welcome everywhere because I know the owner.
