I am so in love with the holidays and I really want to give thanksgiving its due so... I am going to try try try to do daily gratitude posts... lets see if I can do it!
Day 1:
I am thankful for the beautiful fall weather, it really makes me feel happy inside. I love the leaves, the smells, the sometimes dark and dreary, and the next days are chilly but sunny. The crispness, the changing and renewing, the old leaves that must fall off for new ones to come in the spring. I love to think about how trees shed off some of their appendages to make it through tough times.
The leaves aren't falling...
The leaves are actually being cut off because they have done their job, they helped the tree store up on food, they served their purpose but now they are not what is best for the tree so it's time to let go. It helps me remember to not get too attached to things that are helping prepare me for something else... that sometimes letting go of something is what's best for me. (ahem preparing to leave the student life, which has been such an amazing/wonderful/fun/challenging time for us) I know that we are well prepared and that its time to start letting go to this lifestyle and move on to the next.
