" All are welcome," is their motto as they welcome you with a warm encounter leaving you with a sense of a safe feeling. A mind put a peace when all the nervousness and regrets are assured by strangers with strange clothes and charming smiles.
Encounters leave curiosity, the past leaves a reminder for lovely memories, the unpredictable can be proven to be reality, and shadows can lie within the light as they convince themselves they are still on earth.
The stars, the sun , the planets, our solar system all containing bits of unknown information yet to be discovered by those who close themselves up to anything that could potentially ruin the fantasy of a perfect earth. Fantasies they are built out of fears there to conform you for convenience for that mind that wanders to places that only those who experience it will be able to understand. Meant to be crumbled and ripped away from a brainwashed mind by those who are awake and know the storms, the few rainbows, falling star, and a secret of life.
That reality can be sickening, unimaginable, filled with agony, and most importantly cannot be denied nor replaced.
