The heat is still circling, and Beginning of Autumn has quietly arrived. One falling leaf tells you the season has turned. The wheel keeps moving, and it usually moves without a sound.
The name says autumn, but the dry heat of midsummer has not left the stage. We are still in the last warmth of what people here call the autumn tiger. There is no sudden cold. There is only a thin coolness in the wind, days that shorten a little at a time, and nights that gradually turn comfortable.
Beginning of Autumn is a farewell to high summer and the opening line of the harvest. The intensity of the summer settles, and everything starts to ripen. There is no need to rush the goodbye to summer, and no harm in looking forward to what autumn brings.
May we set down the restlessness of the hot months and keep some quiet inside. Live well, settle slowly, and meet all the gentleness and abundance that comes with the arriving autumn wind.
The heat goes and the autumn comes. May your days be peaceful, and may everything find its season.
