For me, the year starts over in October. That may be because I was born in October, but I think it’s mainly the idea of newness that comes with the onset of cool weather, that “back to school” feeling. The sheer weight of change and the thrill I feel at so much possibility overwhelms me – and the possibilities do seem endless. In the fall you can reinvent yourself, become the person you want to be, renew your relationships, steep yourself in nostalgia or meet new people who promise to become lifelong friends. I’ve done all these things and more in the last few weeks, thanks to the decision I made a few months ago.
I love the warmth of summer, but the cold northern air makes me feel alive; it clears my head and brings me to my senses. It’s beautiful and utterly inspiring. Welcome to October.
