I have seen several posts recently, stating the changing of seasons. The wind has a chill to it, The leaves are beginning to turn colors and shed. Another year is slowly coming to an end. Another moment in time will soon be frozen in the records of the cosmos. Yet we embrace the inevitable as we should, welcoming the icy grip of the end. Where will we be when we get there? Though there is no true end to it all, for the ice will soon thereafter melt away and we will begin again anew. It is a cycle. An endless cycle of passing time and change.
I've been thinking a lot about change lately. Change is a powerful force, It has the power to effect us all greatly. Sometimes it keeps things new and exciting. It is a force that both we exert and at the same time exerts it's force upon us. There are also times that we are cheated by it, usually when it sneaks up on us abruptly. It can take our very loved ones and our friends from our grasp. Sometimes for good, sometimes for uncertain periods.
There are several people that I may never see again soon, there are also those I already miss so much. It makes me appreciate the ones around me now even more, but knowing that even then, it may not last forever. It is a lonely feeling you are left with then. Some You may never have the chance to tell how much they mean to you. Especially the ones who do it in the most subtle of ways. Those are the hardest.
I just had to get that off of my mind and into he open. If you're still reading, then, thanks. In closing, to all those around me, with or without an LJ, Thank you so very much just for being you. Thank you For being in my life. Thank you for all the things you may have or have not done. For all the things you may do in the future. Don't go changing.
