A few thoughts

Seasons seem to usually have various sounds and tastes and textures associated with them. The feeling. It comes and you remember. Several years after an occurrence, one may, for example, smell a rhubarb pie baking and be transported to their grandmother's kitchen. So of course, I have various connections in the web of my life that trigger memories and senses of things that once were.
This summer has so far been full of repetitions that I will surely remember. The Taylor Swift "Speak Now" CD my sister has played over and over again. The berries that I have eaten every morning (raspberries, strawberries, currants, cherries). The graphic novel pages that are filling my head. Friends, surely the friendships will not be forgotten. The busy family weekends and stress over relatives, bad tensions, and scary worries. Everything piles on and on.
The next post shall express many of the things that my summer has been composed of and the thoughts inner woven with them.
