Of course, cathedrals were built to look like forests, too.

This makes me think of what places make me think of ‘home’.

When I was a kid growing up in Detroit, I had a spot on a pedestrian overpass, the freeway traffic whooshing below. It had the effect of a rushing river and I found a quiet, isolated space amidst the noise and crush.

That’s precious to me and I truly appreciate it.

I’m still trying to find “home” places in my new city and I’m fascinating by your discovery of how the station feels. Thanks. And it’s great to see you here!

I’ve often been struck by the power of particular places to evoke vivid memories of people I used to know, and whom I otherwise wouldn’t be able to recall in such detail. I guess that’s sort of similar to what you’re describing.
