Fall

It's getting darker and the rain is pouring down over our house.

The chicken don't want to get out of their coop but just sit there all rugged up side by side and wait out the rain.

Now starts my absolutely favorite time of the year. The FALL!

The fall is so forgiving,

If you don't want to get dressed but just scoot around the house in your PJ's the whole day, fall doesn't care.

If you don't want to go to bed at night but stay up with that interesting book and a cup of tea, fall doesn't mind.

Everything you planned for last fall, all your big projects you started and kept up till late October and then gradually let fade out of your life, fall doesn't even remember it.

Fall is forgiving and lets you plan the exactly same things this year and it won't remind you or tease you about your shortcomings last year, but it cheers you on and believes in you.

I love everything about the fall. The darkness provides hiding places where you can retreat, snug up with loved ones and pretend there is no big scary world with big demands out there.
The fall comes with dazzling colors, clear skies, crisp air, fresh smells, that invite you out to explore nature after the long heat index, lung compressing, air condition seeking summer.

The nature prepare to take a rest and recoup while my family and I do the opposite.

It's time to start living and enjoying life. Yes, finally, life is back!
