You know how everyone has a particular smell?
My grandma for example smells of rose soap and soft powder
My dad smells of Johnson baby powder and sometimes coffee and something else i can't really put my finger on
Tim smells of soft skin and smelly toys when he's sleeping
This probably all doesn't make sense to you
It doesn't matter
this wasn't meant to be a post documenting all the individual smells of people i know
It was supposed to be about this afternoon
I went for the Acjc Kronos strings concert (which was very beautiful i used to be very against the sound of violin's but after today i realise how divine they sound) and part way through, i felt cold, so the friend i went with offered me a jacket
And for some reason, i just couldn't get over how lovely the jacket smelled. It was a heady scent like sandalwood and this Arabian perfume my mum used to wear, and at the same to a homely warm smell like a hug. So i was just wallowing in beautiful smells and sounds this entire afternoon.
And yes that was my afternoon
Plus in the morning there was choir and everyone sang relatively well and the music was so beautiful especially when we sang it in the echoey sunken gallery and i just felt such love and thankfulness that God made music for us to enjoy.
Plus i cycles home in the dark dark dark on my bicycle whizzing past trees and on deserted pavements especially along a stretch where the street lights weren't working it was a wonderful feeling like i was the only person in the world at the moment. Everything else was so dark and quiet and still.
