I'm so excited that it is finally October! We had cooler weather today and the leaves are turning and falling and everything outside screams autumn. I love it! There is something really beautiful about the way that the world changes overnight. You could go to sleep on a hot night in September and wake up to a cool, brisk October morning. One minute the leaves are no where on the ground and then a heavy wind sweeps through and you can't even find the sidewalk. And like the weather changes in a second, so do we. We are constantly growing and learning and evolving. Like the trees, we may shed the dead parts of ourselves and leave them behind to be buried into the dirt. We may go to bed a mess of worries and fear and wake up to the thrill of a new day of just being here, of just being alive. As the seasons change, so do we and I think that is never a bad thing.

catch you later,

Karleigh
