“How beautifully leaves grow old. How full of light and color are their last days.”⁠
– John Burrows⁠

There's something about fall. The ending of a glorious season in Summer - where you would think mourning might be appropriate.⁠
⁠
However, the ushering of fall is a celebration. The changing of the leaves. The light reflecting off of each leaf as it falls to the ground. It is actually a scene of beauty.⁠
⁠
Life is often like this. The transitioning seasons of life setting the scene for new colors, new light, and new experiences.⁠
⁠
Growing older and seeing new seasons is often full of more light and color than we might expect.⁠
