It's a season of change and reminds me of the impermanence of things, in nature and in life. Just as the leaves must fall to make way for new growth next spring, I need to let go of the past in order to embrace the gifts of the here and now. Let go of hurts and disappointments … failures and mistakes … expectations and demands so I have a free heart and mind to accept whatever is being handed to me.
Accepting and embracing change is probably one of the most valuable and freeing lessons of life.
