Today was the first time this autumn I was struck by the changing colour of the leaves.
On our walk through Primrose Hill and Regents Park, I began reflecting on how our natural surroundings are a gentle reminder of change.
They shape-shift imperceptibly until, one day, they pop, and we notice we’re in a new reality.
It’s colder. It’s warmer. We’ve made new friends. Created memories with old ones. Changed jobs. Read new books. Learnt new skills. Tried new cuisines.
Much happens against the backdrop of the budding, browning, and falling leaves.
It’s nice to have nature be a reminder to reflect back on all that has changed this year.
