It's sweater weather, and Pumpkin Spice Latte season! The back-to-school supplies are long gone, Halloween costumes are front and center, and apple-picking reservations are being quickly booked.
Why is the start of the fall so predictably exciting? Like the start of a new year, September offers a fresh start for many. On the heels of the pace of summer and with the promise of a new school year, we transition back to routines, homework, sports, activities, and social lives with high hopes of how things could be different with this new season. September and Fall also offer something that feels familiar and predictable despite how quickly it comes upon us with change.
With this transition, responsibilities and busyness accelerate rapidly. Free time can feel like a coveted thing of the past, routines can be utterly exhausting, and family time and connection can be lost. It's easy to be focused on what's next instead of what's now. Pressing pause and gratefully taking the world in can make all the difference.
So take a moment to stop and be present for enjoying that Pumpkin Spiced Latte in that well-worn sweater or hoodie with your favorite people.
