A Secret Place


I really think it is OK to have a secret place where you can read.... think.... be alone. Maybe it is a restaurant at the edge of town with low lights and the best espresso & tiramisu. Or maybe it is a cafe with a Barista who has the same name as you, a totally different life story, but the same love for coffee. Or maaayybeeee, it is the last pew in a dark, vacant stone chapel that marks the halfway point of your trip across Kansas. Wherever this secret place is, you can keep it all to yourself. You don't need to tell your mom or boyfriend and you should never take a date there, even if you are tempted.
It is your place and the people within are a part of your secret story.

I do need to remember to start building myself a secret tree fort for this purpose.
