Pure of Heart

I will walk with integrity of heart
within my house;
I will not set before my eyes
anything that is base.
(Psalm 101:2-3)

How difficult this is to do. It is always easiest, especially at home, to become your worst self. I'll snap at a family member long before I snap at a stranger, and yet my family has earned my kindness more than anyone. Home may be a castle, but who lets their guard down in a castle? That's why there's a moat, right?
