I so love this place, especially in autumn. I always did. I love the golden leaves on the forest ground and the copper ones against the blue sky.
It’s the most beautiful time of the year and although I’m so impatient to leave again, I’m still grateful to get to see the Nature that raised me in her most stunning dress.
Golden October they call it here.
The trees shed their leaves and I shed everything that I can’t take with me into the next chapter of my life, everything that I’m not willing to carry any longer. It doesn’t really feel like a decision though, it is actually getting impossible, mentally and physically.
Let’s be honest, I asked for it. I wanted to be all of me, to do what I’m here for, so Life shapes me into what I need to be in order to do that. I won’t blame anyone or anything else.
It’s just interesting to see how it playes out and what apparently has to happen, be learned and experienced, before I can move on. It’s just a very intense time on Earth. I just let it play out and keep my head up as best as I can.
Today started with so much melancholy, I also really feel the weather impacting me a lot. It was so foggy, I couldn’t even see the lake. All was white and still. As the day progressed I got back a little to my usual strengh and then the sun came out, so I went on a walk to take some pictures.
Walking on golden leaves. Beauty is always there, somewhere, and if I allow it, it gives me joy.
I do love life, I love it so much.
