Querencia

     The day has finally come to an end. Homework and chores are finally done, but now its time to look for a place to just be alone and relax. The first thing that pops into my mind was my room. As I head into my room, I notice my sister using my laptop doing her homework while blasting her favorite music. I try to force her out of my room but she just won't listen to me. So I look around the house for a quiet place but it was all packed with family. Then finally I decided to head outdoors and be one with nature. So I decided to go to my backyard. As i opened the door I felt a slight breeze that came right past me. I layed in the middle of my backyard and stared in the sky. I saw lots of stars that day and I remember connecting  each star to see what it would look like. Then I saw a full moon right next to it. It was the biggest moon I've ever seen I thought to myself. I could also hear crickets singing and felt as if they were singing a lullaby to me. I was getting really sleepy at that time so i decided to head back inside, wash up, head straight to the bed.
      I never thought my backyard would be a peaceful place. I thought it was just a place where i do laundry and store all my junk in. But now my backyard is like my own world. Being here felt like I was finally free from Earth and in my own planet where I can do whatever i want and no ones the boss of me. This place will now and forever be my special place. Its a place where no can disturb me and also a place where I can calm down and thank God for creating me and everything else.
