Fall Then and Now

When I was a child, fall meant crunching leaves and warm soup after school — pure play and comfort.

As an adult, it feels quieter, more reflective — about preparation and slowing down. I notice how the colors seem deeper, maybe because I take the time to look now.

The season hasn’t changed, but I have. Each year, fall reveals a new version of me.
