I feel that it a truth universally acknowledged that August is a month of longing. It’s a month of long days growing ever shorter. August usually means the end of summer. Here, in Los Angeles, it does not really feel that way. Nevertheless, the feeling remains.
It is a good time to start trying. And to start trying new things. Whether it is a job, school, new friendships, new relationships, or other changes, there is good reason to believe that we might find new things now that are worth investing in. I don’t know. Maybe I sound like a horoscope at this point.
I guess I mean to say that Fall and Winter can feel like times of uncertainty, fatigue, and finality. As we head into September, we should take advantage of the transitional season. Nothing is set in stone. Yet.
Keep at it! I try to remind myself every day to value my own efforts. So I guess there are many layers of Trying here. Trying to try can be good enough, can be more than enough.
