As much as it ‘saddens’ me to let go of Summer, ( I STILL get the ‘back to school’-jitters and tummy-flips after ALL these years!) I embrace the impending Fall season. I am very ‘connected’ to the earth-shifts, which occur seasonally, and experience a ‘change’, internal, whenever the earth, Herself, experiences a process of growing different. I have a ‘sense’ of these shifting seasonal changes all the year through; yet, mostly on the verge of Spring and Autumn, and have recognized this most of my life. This ‘sensitivity’ I feel is shared by others whom I know, as well, and seems to be a ‘familial’ thing and perhaps a ‘throwback’ to our primitive ancestors who relied upon instinctive and intrinsic-nature to prepare themselves for weather related and seasonal-change(s). When I was younger, at this time of year, I always associated these innermost ‘emotional’- experiences with the return back to school; however, in that I am no longer a full-time or matriculating student and haven’t been in many a year, these feelings have nary a thing to do with returning to ‘school-days’...or school-DAZE, depending on how one looks at it! In any event, I am enjoying this divine weather which the waning Summer-season is offering us...this most PERFECT of meteorological-fare with it’s bright warm sun, crisp-air and low-humidity; and I relish the idea of much more of the same as we approach the Autumn months...no matter WHAT my ‘tummy’ tells me! Just Sayin’...
