Welcome Fall!
Summer has come to a close and today is the autumnal equinox. For me, the clouds are beginning to part and I feel like I can breathe. Fall has always been the time of year that I feel my best. I'm all about the crisp breeze, changing colors, cloudier skies. No I'm not a big fan of the sun. Lol. So, cooler weather makes me happy and warmer makes me less so. As soon as September hit, I started to feel more energized.
Spring Cleaning
This month I have been contemplating spring and what it means. Feeling the season unfolding around me has me thinking about rebirth and renewal. After all, spring is the time when nature wakes from its winter slumber with a big yawn. Flowers begin blooming again and baby birds can be heard chirping for their mothers. Ahhh, the cycle of life! We are born, we grow and age, we die. This is true of all living things. Maybe that's the reason that most people get into "spring cleaning" - literally and figuratively.
Still a Long Road Ahead
So, here I go again, trying to blog. On again, off again. Journaling has always been like that for me. I really do have the desire to write my thoughts. Frankly, it's good for my mental health. However, inevitably, my old companion, depression, comes in and it takes over everything.
Taking things one day at a time
