Autumn is like a friend that stays behind to help you clean up after a party. It’s dependable and seldom disappoint. It promises rain and you’ll get rain.
It took me a long time to appreciate autumn. I love summer but it filled me with FOMO. There was always the pressure to do something, even though at times I’d rather do nothing.
Unlike in summer, I can’t run away from myself in autumn. I try to make peace with myself, so winter won’t be so tough on me.
When the night gets longer, I started to get ideas for writing. I finally get to sit down and edit the photos I took during the warmers days.
Autumn taught me about acceptance. It’s the time to enjoy the reward of harvest, for the hard work that we did in spring.
Unlike in summer, I can’t run away from myself in autumn. I try to make peace with myself, so winter won’t be so tough on me.
