calm sweaters in trust

Calm is a very strange feeling to me, as I don’t tend to experience it quite often. I am a very anxious person at heart or any of the other words people would use to describe it. Although over the last few years, especially within the last few months I’ve begun to grow quite close to the feeling. This would be from a green sweater that is a little too big on me and contains one bleach stain on the pocket. It may be a few years old but I still wear it. Usually around the house or in my bed where it remains. I understand it is an article of clothing but lately, it represents a lot more. It came from a very special person. Now I’ve known this person for many years and I’d say we have quite the history. I am now interested in this sweater. Whenever I’m having one of my bad nights it's there. Whenever I'm lonely it is there. Wherever it is the sweater is there. As someone who is very protective but tends to lose people over time, this sweater is now interested to show me that is no longer true. 

As a Minnesotan, I own a lot of warm clothes, as I hope everyone in Minnestoa does. Of course, unless you tend to prefer shorts all winter. This tends to be my excuse to purchase so many sweaters. The majority of the sweaters are own show that I have not left many of the phases I went through when I was younger, perhaps just an evolved version. Same style, just different bands. Yes, I tend to wear band shirts on a pretty normal basis as I did in junior high. As I got older this migrated from constant black shirts from Hot Topic to sweaters. Now, this may sound quite dumb but for some reason, they give me the calm I need similar to the music they have created. All in all, for some odd reason even I cannot fathom these small little artifacts of clothing give me so much comfort in this big scary world. One might even say in calm sweaters we trust.
