Also, what's with the velvety prose? Like seriously? So uncalled for at 8pm while I'm sitting in the basement on the treadmill which has cushions on it obv cuz how else are you gonna sit comfortably on a treadmill. But I love it! Really awesome read.
I still kinda don't get the inner/outer change thing, but I get the overall message. Life's weird sometimes, and it can change without us noticing the change. And it's okay if you miss it and then get slapped with snow cuz now all of a sudden it's winter. Sometimes you miss things.
Or maybe you were trying to say something else. I don't know. I blame the red vacuum set by my mom in the middle of the basement for distracting me. I guess I should go vacuum now. Dust accumulates on the carpet much like how summer turns to fall. And then one day you suddenly notice how dusty the carpet's gotten and how much beard hair's on the floor. Such is life.
Hi Walyullah! I think you pretty much summed it up - what it's like to experience august! I just feel like we all somehow go into this state of invincibility the moment May/June hit and stagnancy on this summer high becomes comfortable and expected until august comes around. golden hour starts earlier in the day and the leaves begin to yellow but we're still in summer?? it's just this weird thing of noticing and experiencing change in real time that has you going woah, matrix??
as for the inner/outer change - i meant that sometimes so many new things are happening around us and we freak out at the thought of metamorphosis because we haven't yet made peace with the change that's happening within us or bound to happen. just my way of saying that your inner world reflects your outer perception so you'd do right by yourself to accept that the only certainty in life is change, bring on the unkown!!!
No it does! I just moved out of a august limbo in my ljfe 5 minutes ago with a discussion with my parents and I'm so thankful for fall now and the cool breeze of the coming winter, literally and figuratively in the sense of the the cool comfort some stability and predictable direction in your immediate future gives you.
When it's late spring/early fall weather i can't imagine how I'll cope with the cold, and when it's pleasant winter I can't imagine how I'll survive the summer. I have to remind myself I've done this for 20 something years, so I'll probably fine.
Okay so later ended up being immediately after.

I’m so ready for fall and winter and colder days (not so cold you don’t feel your toes) and hot chocolate and long nights 😩
