It's strange how seasons can control your mental state and outlook on life. I feel like every winter I go through a long dark journey where I self reflect and think about everything I can. I learn a lot about myself and the way my brain works, it almost like its out of my control. I feel like a lot of little thing get thrown my way but rarely work out because its part of this journey or this test. The way the snow covers frozen lakes and hangs in trees is so calming and soothing to me and eases my mind into a state that is hard to reach in other seasons. Even the music I listen to changes to match my state of mind. I always end up listening to really dark and ambient indie bands. It's like I'm battling myself to see what I can handle and how I can grow. maybe this sounds insane.
