Time falls like the leaves in fall


Its incredible hearing leaves fall as if it were rain. as I walk through the streets the wind is blowing and the air is chilling creating an atmosphere for leaves to fall. This time of year they fall like rain drops, and the sound is unexpected yet well invited. My days become longer as the seasons change. Dark Sky's start earlier and come far too soon. The most incredible part though, with all of this change is that the most important aspects of my life have stayed the same or are growing and changing just like leaves falling from trees.


The desire for more falls like leaves from fall trees and creates a long pathway ahead for my feet to follow. As I step I hear a reaction underneath my shoes, A loud crunching sound leads my path in the right direction. I am so happy to be following this new path. Sometimes I wonder how I could go so long without ever being on the path of desire. Life was so empty then. I never knew how different life could be until I devoted it entirely to living free.


Change is incredible, it is critical even. Just as the leaves fall and the summer season changes from fall and soon winter, our lives need to reflect a series of change. As we change, old leaves fall away and new ones begin to grow. Our lives may feel empty at times but what we must always remember is that something is growing and in time we will see new, vibrant life. As it would be easy to hold on to those leaves that have become bridle and old it would be so much easier to let them fall into the sky and wait with anticipation for new ones to come.


Thinking about leaves has my heart longing for snow, all I wonder is how incredible another Christmas shared with Kyle will be. I will have to wait and see but what I know for sure is that love is a beautiful thing.
