Tonight.



This time of year always gets to me.  I don't know what it is about fall/winter, but it makes my heart ache.  Not in a bad way... it's more of an "I'm overtaken by the beauty of it all" kind of ache. The kind of ache that I can't make go away until summer comes again.  But I don't mind it, although, sometimes it's hard to deal with such a strong feeling. 

It starts with the rain. Don't ask me why, but I have always loved the rain.  The smell of it, the feeling of it on your skin, the pure artistic way it falls. To others it just may seem like a whole lot of wet getting in the way of a good hair day... but to me.. it's a heck of a lot more. 
Slowly the rain turns to snow.  I don't know if I've seen anything more beautiful than snow falling on a calm winter day. Simply put, it's amazing.  And the way it makes me feel is impossible to describe.  

So tonight, as the rain falls and brings with it those cold gusts of wind, my heart aches.
