I love autumn. I drive around town celebrating the colors of nature, my heart a bit lighter.
There can be a sadness to the season if you focus on that. Bursts of glory and then a fall to the ground in death.
But then you see a child jump in those leaves and shout with laughter and you know all is right with the world.
I celebrate the glory of the colors and the jumping into dead leaves.
It’s the same in life. We should focus on life. Live life, in all its glory. Am I changing and growing and allowing myself to enjoy all the seasons it brings? That’s my goal!
“Change your opinions, keep to your principles; change your leaves, keep intact your roots.” – Victor Hugo
