i can already sense that this post is going to come across as being very weird and confusing. but, i just have to explain a feeling i've been...feeling...throughout the weekend.
is it just me, or does sunlight/daylight have a profound effect on nostalgia? i can't quite put my finger on it, but depending on the time of day and cloud cover, i always get this weird sense of nostalgia, comfort, and inspiration based on the color of the sky. like during sunset and the sky is a mixture of blue and pinks, and sometimes purple, i get completely inspired by random thoughts and emotions...almost all of my best thinking is performed during this time.
or, if it's a weekend morning and the sun is rising and the temperature is cool....i get overwhelmed by a sense of peace and happiness that has no explanation other than i can relate this experience to a happier, more comfortable and carefree period of time during my youth.
or...if it's a rainy-ish day, if it's just the appropriate amount of blue and grey in the sky, life becomes SO much realer...like people seem more interesting and life seems much more...gritty and intense.
i can't explain any of this! i just get these feelings based on the circumstances of the sky. maybe that's why i'm so into sunsets/sunrises/pictures of the sky. i don't know why, i just am.
these feelings and nostalgias are completely enhanced during fall, when the temperature varies and nature goes through a cycle of change and WOAH the the sky is almost always beautiful...i go through some intense inner discovery and nostalgia. there's a smell in the air that says things are changing and this incredible vibe i get takes me places. i love it but again i can't even begin to explain it. it happened this past weekend since the weather turned a little cool (70s) and i wore a jacket a couple times...just walking around with the cool air temperature and the beautiful sky above and this incredible feeling that can only be felt at times like this....it was amazing. but i can't explain why.
does anyone know what i'm talking about?
