Sanctuary of the Meditative Mind

My favorite place would have to be a place I call, “Valde Silva Insons Insontis Phasmatis.” In this spiritual forest, this is where I do most of my most meditative activities. From artistic thinking to self-reflecting, it is a forest of imagination and ideals. I place my most impassioned stories and feelings in here. I really feel most humble in this sanctuary. This forest is where I confide my sins to the Heavens, and ask for penance as well.
Imagine a forest only lit up by a single ray of celestial light that is given off by Heaven’s Light. And with trees with barks that luster of polished sterling silver. And with the leaves laced with silver, and purest shade of white. I call them serenity guardians. In the heart of the forest, lies a colossal serenity guardian tree named,” Yggdrasil.” Here the ray of light shines, and the light is reflected off the tree and lights up all the others. The tree stands tall above all the others. The pitch black floor is littered with leaves of Yggdrasil and all the other serenity guardians.
In the outer boundaries of the forest, the floor is black, but as you step toward the heart you will see the floor is littered with leaves of the trees. As you climb the roots of Yggdrasil, you will find a gaping cavern with gems never before seen by a single human, but me. And this is where you will find me. In times of high emotional stress, this is where I will be. This is my favorite place. This is my sanctuary.
