I was walking to the office this morning around 11:50 and couldn't help but smile. Autumn is in the air and it's apparent to all! On my one and a half minute journey from my room to work I thought about nothing expect how beautiful the day was and how excited it makes me, I knew it was going to be a good day. Then once at work it seemed everyone I talked to had a comment to make on what a gorgeous day it was outside and how much they love this time of the year. It got me thinking, why it it that so many people love Fall?
In a season that everything in nature is dying, people are rejoicing and for me personally I couldn't feel more alive. Part of me believes because it subliminally emphasizes man's original purpose, to have dominion over the world. It makes us feel like we're greater than nature, that we're not as susceptible as it is. If that's true than I'm even more annoyed with Adam and Eve than I use to be. Why would anyone want to jeopardize this feeling of exuberance? Why would anyone think twice about giving this up? To walk with God and be filled with joy from nature, I wish I could've experienced what those selfish bastards had! Yes I just used the term bastard, it's true, they were born of God who wasn't married to himself; therefore, I'm appropriately using the term. However, since I don't want to harvest negative feelings nor do I want to be depressed during the other three seasons of the year I'm going to choose to believe the other part of me. We as humans desire change and after a long season of heat we're just excited about the change in the air.
On another happy note, I just bought a cardigan and scarf on sale from Urban Outfitters yesterday!
