Winter. I’ve never handled the heat well and it feels like there’s always something I’m allergic to during the rest of the year, so I’ve never really been an outdoorsy guy. But there really is something special about being by yourself in the woods on a sunny winter day. Most of the animals have either migrated or hibernated, and the snow completely absorbs the noises from the outside world. It’s honestly kinda magical, just getting to appreciate the cold stillness of the world, with the only sounds being the gentle crunch of snow under your feet and trees rustling in the breeze. It feels like taking a glimpse into a world before sentient life existed. Or after sentient life existed.

God, I love winter.
