Autumn and goodbye
The leaves have gone from red to brown. In a couple more weeks, all the leaves will fall just as they should be and winter officially comes. There is this unpaintable sadness in the transition. But the lessons of autumn are all clear to me. Gloom, yield, rest the night through.

My ex-boss' last day at work is on Monday, she decided to pursue a different path and it's about time for her to graduate from the corporate world. I chatted with her today and thank her for the herbal medicine and relaxation CD she gave me as a gift 2 months ago. I have insomnia. And upon learning, she gave me all these stuffs. It seemed to have a positive effect and now, I'm waking up less and less each night. Can't really figure out if its because I started to try to feel good about myself and accept the things that are and are not. But I thanked her anyway for caring. Sometimes she'd give me Chinese medicines for my stomach cramps, or aromatherapy oils as stress relievers. Now that I think about it, it makes me sad. I'll miss her. She might have read my eyes and she said, 'it's never about goodbye.'
It is never about goodbye...just as autumn is never about losing hope.
Thanks for visiting!
