Fall always seems to be a time of reflection for me. Whether it's the sweaters and cozy spots for curling up and thinking in, or the changing leaves completing their cycle of life, I don't know, but it gets me to thinking about all the stuff and people in my life. It makes me love writing again, maybe that's because of school and I'm used to having a little break over summer because during the year it's so crunched, but this year is different and I will have to crunch time myself like leaves under my feet. I love people who aren't afraid to stand up and say what they are. Who are weird out loud and so unapologetic about it. I so adore honesty about how we actually are. Sometimes I am not honest about who I really am, but sometimes I think what is the point if we are not honest about it!? That seems like some time wasted not finding our best friends and missing out on some really spectacular opportunities for skipping and idea-making together when we realize how wonderfully we both think!
I was thinking about this today because I met my friend Sarah's friends at school and Sarah and I have always had those moments with lightbulbs flashing like the red carpet and our ideas are so weird and great together because fear of being self is just gone. I just love everything about us being together and hanging out sometimes! It's so easy and fun and delightful! And her friends are all the kind of people who are that way too, so unapologetically weird and easy to get along with and it's like we are each our own wonderful beautiful swirling spiral design in our favorite colors and they just happen to compliment each other so well that it's amazing we haven't been friends forever, matching our colors and designs in the strangest most beautiful ways.
Sometimes I don't make sense, but also that is the point. If you get it you are the best.
