most comforting locations in no particular order:
grocery stores at night
old-fashioned diners
coffee shops
art galleries on quiet days
trains, when you’re wearing earphones
ancient forests scented with cedar
old bookstores that smell of dust and time
empty movie theatres
between the shelves of a library
nearly-empty buses at sunset
cemeteries in spring
ponds deeply hung with willow trees
the arms of a loved one
