Alone

Today is an easy question to answer. No weird feelings. No reluctance in developing a response. Here is what the book presented me with. Write about a place that you go to be alone. For me it is a no brainer. The beach. Venice Beach. Saturday or Sunday morning. The key is to get up early and arrive before 7:30. There is plenty of free street parking. After parking, I head to the Cow's End Coffee shop. My standard order is a large vanilla nut coffee with cream and two splendid. After departing the shop, it is a short walk to the pier or the sand. Standing on the pier sipping coffee, listening to the waves, and watching people surf is a joy. At this moment, the previous week's stress can be released into the ocean, the waves carry away the stress, and what is left over is calm and peace. This is what I enjoy when I need to be alone. Alone time is good for all of us. So where do you go when you need to be alone?
