I feel like I'm living in two worlds.
One world is tropical -- bright, sunny, humid, hot.
The other world is more cave-like -- dark, silent (except for the whir of fans) and cool. Blissfully cool.
I try to spend as much time in the cave-like world, but occasionally I have to venture out into the stifling heat of the tropics.
As I first step into the warmth and humidity, it doesn't seem so bad. But with each step I take away from my chilly sanctuary, the heat becomes more and more oppressive. I can actually feel the energy-sapping heaviness settle upon me as if someone had draped a massive full length fur coat around my shoulders.
If only I could stay in the cave forever . . . or at least until this heat wave breaks.
