A pretty little spot nestled between some buildings. One second your in the city, and then boom, you're sitting by a fountain and under a tree, and next to genetically remarkable Japanese maples and small trees. It's pretty, and the birds will sometimes gather nearby. Going to the top of the parking garage nearby is also rewarding. There's also a few places that are fun to go if you're an evil trespasser (not that I would know)

Not really a secret, but surrounded by graves the sunlight feels brighter and the greenery sweeter! I swear! It’s close to prospect park but much less crowded (in terms of the living). There are so many species of trees that it qualifies as an arboretum, and they offer great early morning guided birding events! Must see: the pile of sticks left by visitors at the grave of Rex the dog, who hopefully gets to chew on them on the other side

You ever make something with your own hands? A painting, a pot, a shed, a sandwich? A meal, a magic trick, a poem, a photo?
Every act of creation is an act of self expression! Everything I make is me, and mine! Boy what a thrill! I even made this! You're reading it! It's me! Hello!

Life is so dang busy. When you're on a plane, it's like, "oh, I have no internet and I can't move from this spot from several hours. I guess I am forced to do whatever I want." And then you play video games or read a book or draw or sleep!!! feels to good to be forced to do whatever you want, because I won't allow myself to do it otherwise!!
