It's Fall! And although the start of fall means that the year is coming to a close, I still love this season. The cooler weather, changing leaves, and all the back-to-school sales (even though it has been quite awhile since I've gone to school). But something about fall smells new, and inspires change. A new start.
I know I struggle with looking back at the past. I refer to it many more times than I really wish to. Sometimes, it becomes so much a part of my present life that I neglect to notice what's going on now. The present moment. I want to change that. I've been working on changing that. So, as my fall resolution, to celebrate this season of change and newness, I will strive (extra hard, much harder) to stay present. Here, and in every aspect of my life. Maybe that's why the last couple of weeks I've had to take a hard look back, so I can finally say, goodbye.
I know it'll be a challenge, but my friend told me that looking back really means holding on to who we once were, how our loved ones were, which discourages change. But people change. We change. Embrace that change. Move forward. Not back.
Happy fall season! Let's enjoy today. For all it has to offer. :)
