Layers

I distinctly recall as a child I had a solid opposition to the idea of wearing multiple layers of clothing. In the chill of Colorado winters, my clothing of choice was no more than a t-shirt and a hefty jacket.

Now that I'm much more self-aware, I have realized how convenient it is to have an extra layer, such as a sweater. It gives finer control over my sensitized, weakening-metabolism body temperature.

Probably started after going skiing many times, appreciating the extra clothing buffer. Perhaps as a kid, I was happy with the polarized hot and cold. Now that I begin to mellow with age, a moderate center is more agreeable.

Getting old, not much time left.
