I love Fall

Back home in Vernon, Kalamalka Lake

I love fall. I know this seems strange but I think I associate the seasons with new beginnings. Even more so than spring. I think it might have something to do with spending a huge majority of my life in school, and how every September equaled a new chance. I love the light in the fall. The golden colour that seems to radiate from every thing. It is so beautiful. The orange, red and brown colours. That crisp feeling in the air. I love fall.

I think it is very fitting that it is in the fall that I bought my first condo. My first home that is all my own! I am very excited for this next step. It feels strange that I have committed to something so huge. At the same time I love the idea that I will have a place to call all my own! To paint, and decorate how I want to. I have to say that I wasn't sure that I wanted to take this on as a single woman, but I have found the courage to take the leap. And what is that saying? Life doesn't happen, you make it happen. Or something like that. So I am making it happen. One giant leap at a time.
