Seasons of my life
I was actually thinking of this on my hour ride home last night. Certain smells and sounds remind me of each season and each season makes me feel differently. So, here goes:
Summer:
Sound: cicadas and crickets, oh and bull frogs
Smell: Food cooking on the grill
Feeling: Carefree
Fall:
Sound: Rustling of dry leaves on the ground
Smell: campfires and dry leaves
Feeling: This is my favorite season. I feel content.
Winter:
Sound: Wind whipping around the house and through the trees
Smell: Cookies baking in the oven
Feeling: Cozy
Spring:
Sound: Springtime thunderstorms
Smell: The freshness of the air
Feeling: Renewal and excitement for the upcoming newness
I challenge each of you reading this to share your seasonal sounds, smells and feelings as well!
i can totally agree with your sounds, smells, and feelings... although, there are others as well for me...
Summer: The sound of running lawn mowers combined with fresh cut grass. Makes the days feel endless
Fall: Windy days blowing around the leaves and the slight chill in the fresh air. Smells of first fires, and pumpkins!
Winter: The sound of nothing. To me, winter is so serene while sitting at home watching the snow fall. It makes me feel warm inside to know that I'm safe on my big comfy couch!
Spring: Thunderstorms are my favorite. It's time to reveal my pale ass skin for the rest of the world to see... It's clean and green for another 8 months!
