"The Master of the Inn" by Robert Herrick is an early 20th-century story about finding peace and yourself. An old New England inn becomes a safe place where people can recover from both physical and emotional hurts. Doctor Augustus Norton, the inn's master, helps men escape the challenges of daily life. These boarders, from skilled surgeons to lost artists, each discover friendship as they work together and enjoy the scenery. They face their problems and find new strength, guided by the Master's belief in hard work, support, and valuing others. This type of care is a contrast to the sadness they all knew, and pushes them to find meaning and love. As the story passes, Norton's lessons show everyone how connected they are and highlight what life truly means.
