Fall a time for dreams to come true
October, a month of transition, marks the end of summer’s
warmth and the beginning of autumn’s embrace. It’s a time of renewal and fresh
starts, a season that inspires new beginnings. September is a special time
when summer ends and brings October and its fall promises something fresh. It
is also a time of renewal. The first weeks of Fall are seen as a chance to
begin anew, to make a fresh start. Fall invites this sense of starting over.
Nature’s playful dance in September, with its alternating
rain, wind, and sunshine, mirrors the internal turmoil of transformation. Mother
Nature continues to play with us in October—the rain and winds come hard, only
to be followed by the rebound of sunny, warm days, as if summer’s last breath
insists on staying. But we know, deep down, that we are in a time of new
beginnings just as much as it is the end of summer. Fall is a season of
rebirth, a time to shed the old and embrace the new.
Summer fades, and fall draws near, but this isn’t an
ending—it’s an opportunity. Soon, the darkness of winter will arrive, when
dreamers dream of renewal, lovers dream of love, and poets and writers simply
dream. There is something transformative about this season—it holds a promise
of more than just harvest, but the chance to reimagine, to explore new
possibilities.
As autumn winds blow and winter’s approach looms, remember
the cyclical nature of life. As fall’s winds blow and winter drifts closer, the
river of life may slow, the highs and lows are less, and while we move toward
the great ocean, we know we are continuing the eternal cycle of life. The
rhythms of nature show us the same truth—change is constant, and renewal is
essential.
While the river’s activity may diminish, the system of life
continues its eternal dance. Spring, with its renewed energy and hope, is a
favourite season for many. However, autumn’s harvest and promise of a new day
hold a special allure for me.
While in Australia, I discovered the profound value of
walkabouts. These solitary journeys offer a chance to explore uncharted
territories, open one’s mind to unexpected possibilities, and witness the magic
of life unfolding. In the same way, fall encourages us to walk a new path, to
embrace the unfolding magic that comes with change. Dreams, often
unanticipated, can surprise us with their proximity, even when they seem
distant. Dreamers know that dreams are often closer than we think. Most of the
time, we don’t even realize how close we are to them until they’ve already come
true.
Sometimes, even the day before a dream becomes real, it can
feel a million miles away. But the winds of fall remind us that renewal is
always near, and the new is often hidden just behind the familiar.
Spring is a season of hope, renewal, and energy, but fall is
my favourite. In the fall, we don’t just hope for renewal; we experience it. The
harvest brings both joy and the promise of a new day, a time for the new to
take root and grow.
