Missing Fall, and All That Comes With It

I love fall. Leaves majestically changing to shades of red and orange before the make their descent to the ground, carpeting it with their regal hues, crackling fires in the fireplace, rain drizzling its way down to the earth through gray skies, pumpkin patches full of excited children (and adults) looking for the perfect specimen to turn in to the Halloween creation of their dreams, watching as the days get shorter before your eyes, curling up on the couch with a hot cup of tea watching through the window as the world outside changes...

There is something truly magical about change. Many of us fight change. We like to remain in our comfort zone; things around us remaining constant and known. Nature knows otherwise and models constant change and adaptation as a norm. Maybe this is why I love fall so much. It is exemplary. It is how we should all strive to be... adaptable, flexible, and open to change.

Or then again maybe I just like the cider, fires, rain, pumpkins, and a sense of security and warmth being inside when its wet and dark outside.

I wish we had fall in Ecuador,
