- I love certain scenery like lakes, waterfalls, mountains, color changing leaves. I like to feel the earth beneath my feet and rocks in my hands. I love the cold, but especially like crisp air during the fall or spring.
- Certain smells are pretty strong, too, like a campfire, a lavender & vanilla scent, or the scent of a perfume I associate with a loved one.
- And then there are a few people who calm me with their presence or their voice, without even having to try. Just their existence, kind of.
