‘change is a measure of time, and in the autumn, time seems speeded up.
what was, is not and never will be;
what is, is change.’

‘and the sun took a step back,
the leaves lulled themselves to sleep,
and autumn was awakened.’

jump in.
get dirty.
fall down.
and
reach again

“jump into the middle of things, get your hands dirty,
fall flat on your face, and then reach for the stars.”
