Friends; plural. I quit drinking.

Maybe I'm the stalker in the woods. . .

I experienced this when I was in the military doing a field training exercise. As we got in our sleeping bags for the night I noticed there wasn't a single noise. No wind, no insects chirping. Temperature outside was pefect. I felt that tingling sensation. It was the most comforting and peaceful feeling. SERENITY is what I would call it.
