Barn Therapy

I go hide out in the barn sometimes, just to take a small vacation, from the telephone and the fax machine, and my all too close relations. Hiding out in the barn, sets my mind at ease. I watch the chickens, sit on the hay, and listen to the breeze. I learn a lot just sitting there, observing the things I see, and hiding out in the barn, is cheaper than therapy. I can psycho-analyze my id, get in touch with my inner self, meditate and mediate, and improve my mental health. There are times, (I’m not ashamed to say), I go hide out there, for the better part of the day. There’s much to be said, for just hiding out, I come to understand, what life is all about. I leave the barn, refreshed and renewed, my problems are minimal, and my tensions subdued. I know I am lucky, to have found the key, to putting my world in order, and finding perfect tranquility. So if you come looking for me, I’ll be where the simple things hold real charm, getting a dose of therapy, hiding out, in the barn.
