A safe, wide, quiet road at night.
All to yourself, bathed in the full moon’s light. So bright your phone doesn’t know how to take a good picture. Which is good, because you don’t need your phone.
You put your phone in your pocket. When you zip it up, out of sight, your night walk comes to life. The sound of your footsteps padding and crunching over the well-worn pavement: an effortless steady rhythm set to your own personal pace. The silvery light illuminating your straight, easily-navigated way forward. The sensation of refreshing, cool night air caressing your nose and lips on its way to being drunk into you, cleansing your lungs … oxygen circulating through your body and clearing your mind.
Silhouettes of reliable shadowy trees stand guard along your path in the night, leaving plenty of room for you to pass between them. In the distance gentle amber lights glow marking a sleepy all-night public house where you can step inside, grab a seat by the fire, and procure whatever comforting sustenance you desire. A snug room is always held in reserve for you as the public house’s most cherished guest; it is you, after all, who brings this place to life through the power of your imagination.
Or you may continue farther, straight towards the horizon, glowing gently where a little dream village sits down the hill from you. As you ramble past the amber lights of the public house, the wide moonlit road takes you into the distance, closer to the village: an easy hypnotic walk down a softly sloping hill leading all the way to a little waterfront port town.
The walk to the seaside village is as long as you want it to be. You easily amble as long as you want to, arriving just when you’re ready to be welcomed into the little town by quiet lantern-lit buildings set close together in a circle in a harbor. From there you will see a dozen different establishments offering different sleepy settings and dreamy experiences.
The farther you walk on the wide silver-lit road, the more relaxed you feel. Your legs and feet move steadily without thinking, carrying you closer to the cozy village. You get sleepier and sleepier as you move along down the road towards the village. It feels like you’re floating now, moving so effortlessly at your own pace towards the night-time village destination of your dreams and its sweet mysterious possibilities.
