When I was younger, I lived with my grandparents in this little town in Tennessee that consisted of a stop sign and a small grocery store. We lived right on the edge of the woods. I mean, our back yard was the woods. I've never really had this feeling though. Actually, when I was upset, I would run off in woods and sit by this little creek.
But, one day I went out past the creek, just out of curiousity. That was a huge mistake! I came across this big circular open spot in the woods. I swear it was a perfect circle. I kind of just stumbled into it and didn't start getting the weird feeling, like I had trespassed somewhere I wasn't supposed to go, untill I got to the center of it.
I kind of just froze and looked around. It felt like there were quite a few people just staring at me. I don't think I have ever ran so fast. But as soon as I got back to the creek, it all went away.
I don't know...water has always been a comfort to me since that day.
