I decided to write this down before the feeling passed. Walking through the neighborhood always sparks new ideas. A conversation with a friend brought this to mind. There’s something deeply satisfying about taking the time to reflect. There’s a certain quality to the air today that feels different. The sound of the rain outside makes for good thinking weather. Something about rainy days makes everything feel more vivid. It occurred to me while making coffee this morning. The changing seasons always make me contemplative. I was reading something interesting the other day that got me thinking. It’s remarkable how much you notice when you slow down. I’ve been meaning to explore this idea more thoroughly. A walk in the park today gave me some unexpected clarity. The more I think about it, the more nuanced it becomes. I find that writing helps me organize scattered thoughts. There’s a pattern here that I hadn’t seen before.
