I feel like my year begins with the equinox. I'm grateful for what the summer brought~ the thirsty hummingbirds, playful dragonflies, and the skittering lizards, the yummy Asian pears and chewy figs.
But I feel no nostalgia for the exhausting heat, well maybe a little for that one stunning beach day... I'm feeling released, inspired and excited in this refreshing shift, ready to unfold my wings and fly.
Thank you for your beautiful insights. Like Tania, I love the artwork, "The Roosting Place" by Maggie Vandewalle.
Yes, I feel a restlessness with autumn as well. Usually it is in the form of excitement as it begins my more creative period. This year feels more unsettled and melancholic, perhaps with another year's birthday I'm feeling time slipping by faster. I do love the piece of art you shared and looked the artist up. Thank you!
I don't want to rest but my body is exhausted lately. Maybe just from the time change? I'm learning not to force it to do things it doesn't want to do, like extra excercise when my legs are hurting. it's ok to rest, that's what shorter days are for
I feel the same way, I am not ready to rest and I am not ready to let summer go. I am embracing the cooler temperatures and adding extra layers where needed.

I adore your words, and the accompanying artwork, thanks!
Thank you for your support Marilyn.
