I’ve said it a million times before but I’ll say it again: Fall is my absolute favorite season of the year. I love the crispness that comes to the air, and as far as fashion goes, I feel that there’s more versatility into how you style your clothes. Fall is also the season of new beginnings for me. I know that many people say that for Spring, but for me, Fall is a season of shedding; where you begin to let things that no longer serve you go.
Conversations around alignment filled my Summer this year. Due to some things that happened with my mom (she’s good now!), my focus had to shift severely, and I had to get extremely intentional with my time. I’ve always been that way, but this time around, I had very little patience or time for people or things that weren’t in alignment with my needs (and especially if the situations weren’t mutually beneficial). Although times can be hard here and there, my life is still relatively peaceful and happy, and I didn’t want to do anything that disrupted that. Not because I expect life to always be that way, but because some things can be avoided if you’re honest with yourself and what you actually have the capacity for.
This was the Summer that I finally took my rose colored glasses off.
I’m an eternal optimist, so I will always find the positive in every situation, but truth be told, your girl got tired of accepting crumbs. Crumbs will never be fulfilling. So much is so good in my life, and if I want to maintain that, I have to take accountability into my role and what I allow, and honey, the jig is up! LOL.
Since making some hard decisions, a weight has been lifted and while some things will take time to heal, I’m looking forward to saying goodby to that which no longer serves me and welcome the goodness. I’m ready to shed any of the lingering dead weight so that I can continue to allow what I truly deserve to flow into my life with ease. It’s been working, and I’m so much more happy.
So hello September, and goodbye Summer!
What are you looking forward to for Fall?
