It’s snowing here! I don’t tend to check the weather forecast so I was pleasantly blindsided by it. Something feels so fresh and awe-inspiring about the first snow of the season, especially when the precipitation sticks as it is doing here today. It started out as a light but bone-chilling rain around 7 o’clock, when it was still dark outside, and then crescendoed into fat, feathery snowflakes as the sky tiptoed towards daylight. Now there’s a blanket of fragile new-ness outside my window which makes me want to put on earmuff headphones, curl inside myself and explore everything which appears in the cave behind my eyelids! Even though winter brings plenty of unpleasantries like cold and wetness and depression, somehow the first snow of the year redeems it all.
"ever since I was little I’ve always felt like I could “hard-wire” memories into my brain just by focusing my attention on specific details"
Honestly, this sounds like a superpower. One I'd love to have.
That moment on the train steps? Beautifully described❤️
Such a quick emotional twist - so enjoy how your mind works
