cool and crisp

I want to live where soul meets body
And let the sun wrap its arms around me
And bathe my skin in water cool and cleansing
And feel, feel what it's like to be new

Because in my head there's a Greyhound station
Where I send my thoughts to far-off destinations
So they may have a chance of finding a place
Where they're far more suited than here

Since the seasons sort of mesh together in Texas, we have to just take what we can get. Autumn is finally around the corner. The skies are clear, there is usually a brisk gust of wind blowing past, and the morning air is cold enough to make you go back inside to grab a jacket. I don't know what it is, but just the idea of the fall and winter season makes me feel more relaxed. I think a lot of people can relate to that. The fact that we can finally pull out those beloved sweaters, scarves, and peacoats gets people excited. This time of year even brings about a change in music choices. Also, purely the fact that it is colder means I can properly enjoy peppermint hot chocolate and wassle. Those are two of my favorite things. ever.

With all of the responsibilities and requirements we have to deal with everyday, its nice to know that simple things such as the changing seasons can be enough to stir some positive emotion in people, and it doesn't matter how old you get. This ridiculous election, the economy, school, work, graduation, the thought of being thrust out into the real world, relationships, insecurities...sometimes you just have to keep shit simple to stay sane. Nowadays, it seems like we are too often just trying to stay afloat. These simple vices are what can really bring our heads above water.
