[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A house is a box. Whether it's a "home" or not is an internal choice you make for yourself. If you chose to consider it no more than a hotel room, that's it will ever be. There are some fine hotels, hotels with beautiful furnishings and gardens, wonderful light, you name it. It's not the place that makes it "home" - it's you. [/quote] I agree with this. It’s an empty shell. It sounds very spoiled to say you can only be comfortable and happy in a certain style of house. If it’s too dark, get more lamps. Make some memories there.[/quote] Yes and no. A shelter is a shelter. But as you know, with seasonal affective disorders and working condition studies, natural light is actually critically important to all living things, including human beings. My plants, my parrot and myself all thrive on natural light. Most artificial lighting is not full-spectrum, and therefore cannot replace natural sunlight. I actually have a full-spectrum lightbulb on top of my parrot's cage to provide a set period of full sunlight every day, given that she's inside and not outside in the Amazon rainforest (where parrots take sunbaths before returning to the shaded canopy). Anyone who is unhappy in a dark home, please buy a full-spectrum light system and sit by it every day. It will stave off depression until you can move to a more congenial abode.[/quote]
