I wonder what secrets remained hidden from me at the top of the stairs?

I could have continued on and up. I had already explored some distance beyond the boundaries we had originally thought existed.

It was here I chose to go no further, to head back.

It’s not that I wasn’t up for the adventure, I was. It was simply that I had no one to share it with.
