My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
As most of you know, I am not fond of summer.
However, even people who love summer have mentioned that they find the heat and humidity hard to handle this year. They too are looking forward to autumn.
Besides the oppressive heat, this summer has been rough for me. There is something "off" about it. The overall energy seems chaotic and tense. Instead of people being happy about summer, they seem much more impatient and argumentative. I've witnessed more screaming matches on the streets, and more horn honking and bird-flipping than I ever have. Even though I don't like summer, I can usually move through it without bitching and complaining. However, this year it's been extremely challenging. Maybe it's because I live in a heavily populated city, but I find myself dreading the thought of mingling with bumper-to-bumper people. When I'm not working or running errands, I am hibernating indoors. I find it too hot to do anything else.
This is why I look forward to spending more time outside, once autumn rolls in and brings cooler air. I long for the day when I can finally wear a turtleneck and a jacket.
For me, my senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch) are immeasurably affected by the fall season. Ironically, although autumn is a time when things are dying, I personally feel more alive.
Therefore today, I would like to share a sneak peek into my favorite season; anticipating the sensory delights that come with autumn.
Hope you enjoy!
