YES YES AND YES!

I believe I have reverse seasonal depression. The summer is always blah for me. I hate the heat - ask anyone that I have shared a room with. I get heat flashes at 75 degrees, I can’t wear long sleeved shirts and a have perpetual back sweat. Too much? Well it’s true. And that’s why I love the fall.

Everyone knows that red, orange and yellow trees beat green trees. Everyone knows that football is nostalgic the the midwestern American. Everyone knows pumpkins are better than watermelon. And most people know that Sigur Ros and Pumpkin Ale beats Jack Johnson and Oberon - in my humble opinion.

Cold Tangerines.

There are things that happen to us, and when they happen, they give us two options. Either way, we will never be the same and we shouldn’t. These things can either strip us down to the bone and allow us to become strong and honest, or they can be reasons we use to behave poorly indefinitely, the justification for all manner of broken relationships and broken ideals. It could be the thing that allows everything else to turn, that allows the lock of our lives to finally spring open and our pent-up selves to blossom like preening flowers. Or it can be the reason we use to justify our anger and sharp tones in our voices for the rest of our lives.
