changes

The crisp feeling in the air these days is a sign of winter's approach, a reminder that the cycle of the seasons is always turning, no matter what else happens. Each day represents a subtile shift, sometimes imperceptible, however nothing is ever static.

These last few weeks have seen a lot of change in my life. My husband and I said good bye to Montreal and moved to Boston. That same week we had to say good bye to my amazing grandmother. She was such an inspiring woman - a person who really was all about family and about love. She led such an amazing life, and she will be so missed. She had twenty-eight grandchildren, and being all together, and thinking about her... it felt like the end of an era (that I didn't want to end).

But the earth tilts and the seasons shift, and if we are still here we have to enjoy each day and each other.
