Autumn Bliss


I have this funny idea that after I die, I'll somehow be able to spend an unlimited amount of time in the moments I have truly loved. I also believe I'll keep learning, progressing and moving forward, so I'm not really sure how that going back in time thing will work. I figure someone else will work that out.

Anyway, when I'm not ready to say goodbye to a place or a moment, I use that idea as a kind of security blanket - tell myself I can return to that spot. Like walking in autumn leaves at dusk, feeling protected by the mountains and holding hands with my husband. Some moments are just too perfect to only have once.
