Clinton’s Farmer’s Market is held on Thursdays from 10-4. There is something to be said about farmer’s markets. They make you feel rooted I guess. If that is the word I am looking for. I feel like I go back in time when I go to a farmer’s market. It’s a shopping experience that is out of the ordinary. You have to try it to get the vibe.
I live in upstate NY and you all probably know what that’s like. On average, we get about 8 months of cold/rainy/snowy weather and 4 months of rockstar weather. I love the change of seasons. Like everything else in life, even the sunshine could get exhausting also. I need to see those leaves changing to the fiery reds, burnt oranges, golden yellows, and deep purples. There’s also a different smell in the air. The smell of camp fires magically appear out of nowhere. Even the sounds are different. When the wind blows, you can hear the rustle of the leaves blowing across the ground. At the end of summer, my mom always said, “the trees, grass, and bugs are tired, and they need to rest too.” At first, I didn’t understand what she truly meant but I see it now. The once bright fresh greens that the leaves used to be now appear subdued and look like a deep olive color.
Change is good. I welcome change and I don’t mind whatever mother nature brings my way. I really love all types of weather in upstate NY.
Again, why do we have put up with people’s lack of intelligence? There is a big wide world that we are connected to called the internet. Research has proven that gluten intolerance is a real thing. Why can’t people understand that? I get comments time and time again telling me that it’s in my head. Yeah tell my stomach that when it blows up to make me look like 9 months pregnant in 30 minutes.
I can tell you that stupidity is a psychological issue and people need to get help for it. Just read. Educate yourself on stuff before you open your mouth.
Sorry for the grouchy post but it’s like enough is enough.
This post isn’t just for the gluten intolerance rant. It is for all the stupid remarks that comes out of everyone’s mouth.
Okay, I am done. For now.
We are all struggling with something in our life. Health, relationships, financial hardships, mental well-being, physical well-being or know someone who is going through the same.
During these times, try to find the joy in life. Anything. There is always something good that can cancel out the bad. Celebrate life while you can. Celebrate the life you have with others. Take advantage of the time you have on this earth and make the most of it. You can’t get those moments back. There are no redos in life. One shot. That is it. Do whatever it is to make peace with yourself.
Sometimes you have to let the small and big things go. Is it worth the aggravation to get the last word in or go to extreme measures because you think you’re right? Everyone has their own beliefs and opinions but it doesn’t necessarily mean that is the only way.
Breathe, let go, appreciate, and think. Your brain is what control your emotions. Think positive and passionate. You still have a chance to get it right.
