I have a new scheme to make my millions...I'll make a place where people can go at night when it is too hard to be where
they are. After all, where can you go at 2 am?
I imagine it with two rooms. One would have a fireplace and soft couches
with old quilts. You could have hot chocolate or tea and little cookies, nothing
too fancy or filling. The mugs of hot chocolate would be the big ones you could wrap your hands around and the cookies would be on little silver trays. They would just be there, magically.
The other room would have a little pool with a quiet waterfall and a
starry sky painted on the ceiling--or maybe a glass roof open to the night sky. On stormy nights the rain would patter down and when there was a full moon the whole room would shine and glow in moonlight. It would be warm and a little humid, like a
greenhouse. It would smell like grass, flowers and dirt. There would be comfortable chaisse
lounges, or maybe hammocks, with light cotton blankets.
The place would only be
open from midnight to 7 am. There would be no talking allowed, not even any
music. Just quiet. You could sleep or not (but no snoring). Anybody who was sad,
or scared, or tired could come and curl up and rest.
