autumn breeze

So, i was visiting my sister this past weekend, and her husband suggested that i start blogging, so here i am.

i love to write.
i love to read.
i love to observe.
i love to love.

i was driving home today, and i absolutely love autumn. i love the cool breeze that it brings, the smell of crunchy leaves falling to the ground, the beauty in the air, the beauty in the colors. i lose myself in the beauty. i wanted so badly to just pull over and just absorb, just take all of the beauty into my lungs and never have to breathe out. i become so thoughtful when it's fall, and i enjoy that side of me. when autumn rolls around, i always find myself observing me. i wonder if i am making the right decisions in life. if i could do it all again, i'd go to school for photography. i want to capture all the beauty that is in the word because i think that we all take advantage of it. i mean, look outside. look at the gorgeous landscape that you see. take it in, and enjoy it. it's not going to last long - before we know it, december will be here, and we won't be able to sit in the park and talk to someone close or sit by ourselves and gather our thoughts or take a walk holding hands with someone we have grown to love. the sun will be out tomorrow, and i plan on soaking it up. i want to feel the rays all over my face, so i can feel my freckles tingle. i want to come back, look in the mirror, and see my highlights lighter. i want to feel at peace. i want to feel comfort, and that's the best way, in my opinion, to do it. just take in your surroundings. get a warm latte, and bring a book; bring a journal, write down your thoughts and reflect on them. that's what this time of year is for - take advantage of it for once.
