Sunday Writing Prompt “Peace of Mind”

When I was pregnant and afterwards when I was a new mother I used to visit a tree just like this one in a park not far from my house as a way of centering myself when I felt overwhelmed with stress. For me that spot was the most magical place on earth and I found the presence (and believe me the tree had presence) of the tree a tremendous source of comfort/connection. For this prompt I want you to recall a place, object, or being that brings you peace of mind. If you are feeling too feisty for this prompt why not give someone a piece of your mind instead!
