Place of Peace and Healing

On the edge of town, not two far from where I grew up, there is a sweet little house that reminds me of a cottage. The door is never locked and the grass is always accompanied by delicate flowers.

When you step through this little house's threshold, you will be greeted by bosco, the ever so healthy, chocolate lab. The kitchen and dining room are open and ready. Ready for cooking, ready for tea, or ready to supply you with marshmallows and chocolate to roast and make smores in the back yard.

Up the narrow stairway that welcomes you and to the left is a room with yellow walls. Every time i walk in that room i feel like i've stepped back, not in time but to a place of innocence and peace. Simply breathing in the air here makes it just a little better. And thats what I have needed, a place that i can find peace to feel a little better.

On september 4th, 2010. I will move into the Crumbs house in Lafayette, Colorado. There i will wait. I will wait for peace, for healing, for the quiet moments that will bring me through the darkest parts of me and place me in the light.

I have friends here, memories here, and moments just waiting for me. What a perfect place to find who you are...what a perfect place to find Elizabeth M.
