I've always felt the autumn to be a more contemplative time of year. Maybe it's in the way the sun calls attention to itself in the slanting afternoon shadows, or that vines and branches everywhere are pregnant with heavy fruits (even the Sunflower bows its head in prayer!) I know little about Estonia but I imagine the winter is hard.
I'm glad to read your reflection and that the prompt was serendipitous for you.
Have you been able to reconnect with family since being around them more?
It's the darkness that's worst about the late autumn and winter IMO. The clocks were turned back by an hour over the weekend and now it gets dark at around 5 PM already. Although the weather can be terrible as well, lol
Yeah, I've connected with my family a fair bit, that's one nice thing about being back around here. Especially since I've been travelling a lot, and for better or for worse, most of the connections one makes while travelling seem to be quite ephemeral. It's nice to know there are people somewhere who will always be there for you. But they've got their own issues to deal with (the silent depression is real, I saw it in Australia, in New Zealand, and well, we all know Europe has been in a serious decline and Estonia was never very well off in the first place), and their own paths to walk on, so it's definitely not like I have a wolfpack now. There's a lot to be grateful for, nevertheless, and I intend to be as much of a help and an inspiration to them as I can be.
