Have you ever dreamed that you could just…..disappear? To just wake up one day and be in a place only you know of, and only you can go? A place where you feel true inner peace and calm, like you are cuddled into a cozy warm blanket and you don’t need to go anywhere or do anything. Perhaps this is a place in your mind or your dreams, where you can close your eyes and can imagine that place. I do that often, and I usually go to a wooden cabin in some broad and beautiful forest. The sweet scent of morning dew on the waving grass all around, and tall trees reaching for the sky like fingers. I feel my warm cozy hoodie pressed against my arms and the ground crunching beneath my feet, sprinkled with fallen twigs and leaves. The birds always sing sweet melodies in the trees and soar across the sky. Sometimes it might be cold or chilly, and there will be a magical mist coating the forest floor. The chill breeze cold and sharp in my lungs and throat, but it only makes me feel more alive, even if it is only in my head. Sometimes I will wander around and explore, and come across a lake, shining beautifully and bright in the sunlight. Big lily pads float blissfully around on the crystal clear water and dragonflies race around in the air. A big willow tree towers over the water’s edge, its delicate leaves making it look almost ethereal. I know I can stay in this dreamy wonderland as long as I like. But everyone must come back to the present eventually, having reality and everyday struggles is an important part of life too. Otherwise these “special places” wouldn’t be so special.
