That’s a beautiful photo combined with even more beautiful words, Christie. I always love seeing a post from you pop up on my WordPress feed, although, it looks like I missed a good few – cannot wait to read them later on this week. Anyway, your post reminded me that there is so much beauty to come and a feeling of newness in the air – but I know the knowledge of the coming darkness can cloud our view of the season ahead. On my daily runs, I try to notice small season shifts that ground me at the moment. I find that by slowing down and paying attention to the ebbs and flows of nature, I can find moments of calm whenever I need them. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day 🙂 Aiva xx
Thank you Aiva for your beautiful note! The gifts of life are everywhere, we just have to look around and find joy and happiness in all the little things that surround us.
Hope you’re doing well! Ericeira has started a new school year this fall, how is the little one? I’m sure they keep you busy all day long🙂 All the best!! xx
Hi, Christie 🙂 How are you doing? Thanks for asking. This year, Ericeira started 1st class and joined a few new after-school activities, including Tae Kwon Do. And our little one is about to turn one. The girls do keep me busy, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. I hope you had a wonderful autumn season and were able to see, feel, and convey all the depth, fullness, and very essence contained in every blade of grass, every tremor of a leaf, and every exhale of wind. Have a wonderful day 🙂 Aiva xx
