The leaves on the trees outside my apartment windows are about 47% yellow, 53% green. And I feel the same.
Half of me wants to hold on to this year. How can it almost be over already?
The other half is ready for a change. I’m listening to different music. Wearing different clothes. Going to different restaurants.
So this month, I kept notes in my own literal little black book of the things that helped ease me into that change.
These are my yellow leaves.
Welcome to the October Black Book.
