I know to some, summer ended with Labor Day but in NYC, we were in the 90s last week so for me, the summer ended today with the start of cooler, more fall-like weather.
Fall is my favorite season with Spring a close second. I think they are my faves, not only because of the perfect balance of weather (not too cold, not too hot), but because they represent change and renewal. Fall is about change and Spring is about renewal. I love seeing the leaves change color and the weather getting cooler where I can bust out my jackets. Yes, I am a self-confessed jacket whore. I love how a jacket can transform an outfit. But I digress.
This summer was tough but it was a time of rediscovery for me. I lost my brother Danny just before the summer started and honestly, that loss was pivotal for me. Whereas my dad's death three years ago taught me the lesson of not wasting time and taking life for granted, my brother's death taught me the lesson of letting go. Tears are falling as I write this and that can't be helped. His death is still painful for me but I take it one day at a time.
