    I was listening to a sci-fi themed ambience sound track featuring a
    space station on youtube. The top comment was below passage, which I felt almost like a fellow QEC user who would wrote :)

    (make sure to read while listening to the youtube track, link below)

    ‘I walked into the bar, instantly receiving the same energy from the
    other patrons that I myself was feeling; tiredness, stress... relief in stopping by this small speck of pit stop in infinite abyss
    outside. Complete strangers shook hands and spread smiles in mutual understanding. I took my Tetabel roast coffee and Dorvian oat biscuits
    from the bored-looking waitress and sat in a plush chair two tables away
    from a window that just missed out on a view over the rest of the
    station, and my light freighter, the Bandicoot, docked on the far
    side. I placed my coffee on the low table and sank into to soft cushions
    of the chair, refusing to put music in my ears given the peaceful
    ambience of the atmosphere around me. The soft hum of the station’s life support systems and the hubbub of conversation helped my weariness
    slowly take over, only aided whenever the muffled rumble of a departing starship passed close to the module. I started to close my eyes, finding
    a bliss in the thought of staying here indefinitely, only to have that
    bubble burst by the reality of having to get on with my travels in the
    morning. But for now, I’ll just enjoy this little slice of sanctuary.’
