Autumn is absolutely one of the best times of the year. We can argue all day about it but instead, let’s just list the ways on why it can lift spirits almost instantly:
- The weather– The cooler temperature is setting in for the fall season gives us a much needed break from the high heat of summer. Fall weather serves as a brief respite from polar temperatures on both ends of e summer and winter weather.
- The leaves change– The beautiful yellows, oranges, reds, and the occasional purples take over the scenery with the leaves changing. While the greens of spring and summer are beautiful, they are a little monochromatic. Giving fall an aesthetic edge.
- Fashion– Sweater weather is so good there is a whole song by the Neighbourhood about it. Besides, who doesn’t love putting on a good pair of boots?
- Halloween– A holiday that is super scary yet super fun if you know the right people. Everyone gets to dress up, party, eat candy, and play some good pranks on others.
- Thanksgiving– A month after spooky season, comes the holiday that will make everyone gain a few pounds. Thanksgiving is the time where we reminisce about family and friends while sitting around a feast filled with whatever your heart desires as long as there’s turkey!
- Christmas– Another month later and everyone gets to give and receive gifts from loved ones to spread love and prosperity. And for those who are religious, they get to celebrate their different beliefs during a sacred and peaceful time. Though this is considered a more winter holiday, it still gives people life and happiness when they hear that autumn is upon us.
