Winter is Coming

Not a GOT reference.

Unlike many people, I am not a fan of GOT. I tried it, and in theory, I should have liked it, but there was something about the character's lack of growth that didn't sit well with me.

It could be that my incessant need to grow and learn infringed upon my ability to enjoy the books or the show like so many others could. Or it could be that Epic Fantasies such as Game of Thrones and The Lord of The Rings are just not for me.

Regardless of why these stories don't resonate with me, even tho I enjoy fantasy in general, winter IS coming.

In a few short weeks, the season of winter will be here. And while I love me a good couch and blankets during this season, my favorite thing about winter is that I hibernate.

From an introvert's perspective, hibernation is a way to cuddle into a fort made of cushions, pillows, and fluffy things to reset and rest my brain. I love the darkness and the quiet. I enjoy the extra layers and the darkened skies.

I love the snow too.

Don't get me wrong. I DIG sunlight and the ability to do things outside in warm weather. It's just that allowing myself to hibernate in the winter gives me that extra boost of energy in the summer, spring, and fall.

I wonder how other people energize themselves. Do you have a ritual or special thing you do to help yourself feel better? Share in the comments below. I'd love to hear from you!
