I am a creature of habits. It never ceases to amaze me how we are programmed to respond to our senses. For me, there are many instances where a certain song will trigger certain memories (some good, some not-so-good).
Today was an example of that. For those living here in Portland, we had a little gift early this morning – rain which, after a long and hot period, is a welcomed part of the summer.
Rain has always been one huge “trigger” for me and unlike many folks who complain about the rain, I personally am quite fond of the falling precipitation. There’s a unique smell of rain that I absolutely love and along the lines of music triggers – in the case of rain, it often leads to an urge to listen to jazz.
So, today was a jazz day … and a lovely one at that.
