Wisdom of the Fall

Seasonal changes - some people are excited for them, others not so much.

Fall - representing the time of year when the nights are longer, days are cooler, nature is slowing down, and soon comes winter.

Fall can affect the mind - some cherish the stillness and others resist the change.  

Fall can remind us of impermanence - where leaves change colors and eventually fall, leaving trees and bushes bare.  Yet there is beauty, and wisdom.

The wisdom of fall is that it is a visual reminder that life is constantly changing, it never stays the same.  It, like life, has stages, phases.  

Autumn reminds us through the shorter days and longer nights to find comfort amongst the solitude.  This space allows for awareness and openness.  

With all the changes that occur in nature it is a reminder for us to understand what is important in our life, and what we get to let go.  What brings us purpose and contentment and what brings us discourse and unhappiness.  What feeds our souls and what detracts from our truth.  

The wisdom of the fall is that we can find gratitude to bend with the seasons and to remain steady within the change.
