These past couple of weeks have shifted us from Summer into Fall, September into October. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. While I like aspects of every season, Spring and Fall top the list. Spring is about growth as flowers begin to pop through the cold ground and trees begin to leaf out, walking barefoot in the grass and feeling the warmth of the sun on your face. Things are waking up, stepping out. Fall is also filled with color, but also preparing, changing, resting, harvesting.
I was reminded the other day, we reap what we sew. And we sew in Spring filled with anticipation of the harvest come Fall.
In hopes that we may have abundance, right? We put in the time, effort, energy in to our day to day in hopes that there will be growth and the harvest will be good. We reap what we sew.
Spring didn\’t exactly start out the way I had hoped or planned. It didn\’t exactly turn out the way most people anticipated. And it certainly has taken it\’s toll.
Recently, I decided to go back to basics. Go back to the foundation that I had made solid a couple of years ago. Then using the tools I learned then I have begun to peel back layers, to reset, dig deep, make repairs, and build back up.
If you have been following on my journey and have heard part of my story, then you may remember that back in 2018 I really started to dig

The week got away from me, then I had a week of positional vertigo. So I am accepting defeat…or well accepting that this post is done, but something I can come back to in the future and share more about. I am learning to accept and give grace that a well timed post is helpful, but also that if I am not able to get the post finished and out there, it is okay. Sometimes I struggle with leaving it as a draft or accepting that it is just not the right time to put it out there. But, as time goes by, I am getting better with it. I had every intention of finishing this post, but then some twists were tossed my way.
I am taking it as a sign that maybe journaling about this would have been enough and God was showing me a different path with this.
We are now to the middle of October. I hope that wherever you are, that you are doing alright, that there is laughter in your day, joy and things to be grateful for. Take it one day at a time, or moment at a time and see where it leads.
