The rain has finally come to Seattle after the air has been thick with smoke for days on end. Did you see that we hit 245 on the Air Quality Index (AQI) at 11 a.m. Thursday? For reference, 0-50 is good, and 200 is very unhealthy. 300 is Hazardous. Seattle had the worst air quality in the world yesterday. My climate crisis induced anxiety has been high this week. Sometimes being truly present is truly frightening. The fear of what the world will be like in 20+ years has a made a permanent and ever expanding home in my mind. And when anxiety is jamming loud on the drums in that house of my mind, it’s time for a self soothing list making sesh’.
I really enjoyed this summer weather but i remember when we had that brief rainy day in the midst of it toward the last part of August and i heard the raindrops from my bedroom and ran outside to welcome its soft kissing drops on my skin. It was Bliss. Theres just something about the pnw rain that feels like home. S L O W down it whispers. So i feel much the same as you do when fall arrives. Samhain makes herself known and all our places inside feel safer to show up. Maybe its the extra layers we have to put on to stay warm that makes us feel free to be more vulnerable🖤 Your list speaks to me and i can relate. Thank you for the Playlist share! Looking forward to listening to that✨️
Oh my goodness, I love this playlist! I'm just up north, near Vancouver, and this is the first time in 10 years of living here, that I've been ready for the rain...I had a solid 2 beautiful weeks in September here, and then 2 lovely Fall weeks in the US (visited the midwest, my hometown, to see family) and I fully absorbed it. Fall is my favorite season, by far, and the rain today (the first in ...months?) was very welcome. This playlist suits the mood!
