You have returned to your condominium in the city after a busy day. As you enter the revolving door, it seals behind you, the noise of the street vanishing instantly. You always love this split second while you are neither outside nor in the lobby. It's like you are between worlds. You are unreachable.

Then the cool and soothing air of the foyer opens up as you step out of your compartment in the moving door. All the hubbub and the traffic sounds you have been hearing seconds before on the sidewalk are now inaudible. The doorman nods at you with a welcoming smile as your shoes tap lightly across the marble tiles. It is so quiet that your steps seem like the only sound.

It helps you to center yourself in a way. The coming evening will be about you as you unwind in your retreat from the city. Your steps across the lobby are a crossing into your favorite time of day. You continue to the elevators. Then, you push the button for the 15th floor and watch the panel that shows the progress of the elevator.

You are surrounded by perfect silence as you follow the lights above your head. They illuminate one after the other as the lift slowly moves downward. There is a quiet chime as the elevator nears the lobby. The entire world feels suspended for a moment as you wait for the doors to slide open. You hold your breath lightly in anticipation, Then, with a light shushing sound, they part.

You step inside the elevator, which is so quiet it feels like a soundproof booth. The doors slide closed again with a shh. After just a moment's pause, the elevator levitates gently, pulling you with it. This is a meditative process for you. The ride in the elevator is always best when you get to do it alone.

You have a sense that, with each floor you pass, you are more and more separate from the outside world. The thrum of that street-level activity pulls away as you rise into the sky. You feel happy the whole time the elevator is traveling upward, knowing your retreat awaits. The lift comes to a smooth stop at the 15th floor. The doors begin to slide open,

They say again, and you step out into a richly carpeted hallway. In contrast to the lobby, as you walk toward your door, you can no longer hear your own footsteps. Even though your door looks just like all the others, you know exactly which one it is. When you get there, you slide your key into the lock and turn it with a satisfying click. Then you pause ever so briefly.
