The morning started off fresh and cold. I rush to work as I’m not enjoying it. But the air is clear and it fills me up with energy and fresh ideas for the day.

At noon, I take a walk. Autumn is crunching under my feet. Leaves, horse chestnuts, dirt dried up from the rains – it’s all there. Some birds are falling behind the others forming a V in the sky. My scarf is sliding from my shoulder. I’m not sure if I’m hungry or thirsty for a very hot drink. In the end, I choose food. Autumn teases the appetite!

Some nice things happen. Some words of praise are received. I am happy and grateful. I relive them in my mind. I put them in my journal, so that I don’t forget them. Even dinner doesn’t taste better than them.
