Day 82 - Write a prayer to your... plumbing!

I am staring at my radiator and hoping it doesn't burst before the plumber arrives...!

So, quickly, today I want you to consider writing a prayer to an object that you take advantage of / ignore because it’s an integral part of your life.

For example, a slowly corroding radiator pipe.

A light in the bathroom.

The cooker fan.

Your air-fryer.

What do you wish to praise in case it decides to stop working after all these long years?

Because in a sense the architecture of a place holds us. It can betray us too, of course, but it is also what keeps us able to wash or read in the dark in the first place.
