A Safe Calm Space

Prompt: If you could choose any place or scenario (real or imaginary) to place yourself in right now for your comfort and relaxation, where would it be? Describe it in as much detail as possible.

The safe place where I think I would be the most calm right now is the Rose Court Garden at the Disneyland Hotel. It’s the small rectangular mostly fenced-off section next to the Frontier Tower, only the fences are green hedges. There’s a large opening that leads you down a cement path toward a raised large octagonal gazebo, with three steps leading up into it. Behind the gazebo in a sort of half circle, there are several rose plants. There isn’t usually a lot of noise – but sometimes you can hear peels of laughter and the joy of kids playing at the pool nearby. The gazebo has greenery wrapped around some of the poles holding up its pointed roof.

It’s a place of hope, which is relaxing for me. It’s where, if I could, get married. So when I’m there I can’t help but feel a sense of serenity and hope and the possibility of a happy future. It’s a place where I can’t help but know that one day I’ll be loved and wanted.
