Change of season?

It's that time of year when the dog days of summer turn into fall. Here in Florida, we very rarely see fall! If we do, it's happens in Winter and that confuses everyone until Spring!

The change of seasons has never really affected me. I have a vague memory as a child seeing our beautiful Dogwood tree change colors and wondering why. I love the fact that there’s a certainty, a progress to the year that you can count on almost like nothing else in this world whether you notice it or not. For the first time in my life, I am seeing that Fall doesn't care if you’re sad or depressed, it’s coming nonetheless. And winter won’t hold off until you’re feeling less anxious or manic. The seasons will change no matter what happens in our lives .

This year, I seem to lose track of days and weeks that melt into months and before I know it, another season has come and gone. I look back on it and say, “What do I have to show for the past 3 months?” Sometimes, not a lot. Sometimes I will think only in terms of my work. Another day working for the Big Cheese!

I'm sad that I am recognizing the change of Seasons this year. With the crisp night air(Tonight is in the low 70s! Gotta love Florida!), I can't help but think of where my life was last time Fall. I can't help but think of how much my life has change and the pain that has come with change.

The sad reality is that Life goes on. Seasons change. People enter and leave our lives. Shit happens!

I guess we just have to deal with the changes and move on( With the help of God). Reality sucks sometimes!
