The seasonal countdown is ticking, 5 days left of August, which will throw me into the full swing of September, it’s going to be a big month. I don’t say that lightly, there is a lot of work. Onwards comes October, where I am jumping on lots of planes to very faraway places as well as turning 27 on the 14th. I feel ready for the next 8 weeks. But for now, I’m saying my final goodbyes to summer 2015 – it was my best one yet. My heart swells when I look back on this season that still is but will so soon be past.
I was lucky enough to travel extensively, I adopted my puppy, Biba and I finally feel established in the greatly anticipated apartment I call home here in Barcelona. Personal reflection is very important to me, I tend to get stuck in self-criticism, but today, I come at you with personal celebration. For no other reason than that this summer was a beautiful one. It is a season that I feel satisfied with, happy to tie these warm days up into a chapter of my life that I will remember as perfectly progressive. I’m getting somewhere, I don’t feel so scattered, still rather clueless but comfortable in the uncertainties.
And so here’s to summer 2015, a season I will salute now as well as later, from the colder horizons of the winter to come. But until then, I am squeezing the season like a lemon, soaking it all up while it lasts. Which today meant sun basking in sheer whites as well as buying watermelon for lunch. I hope you too are happy, quietly a little sad that summer is simmering down perhaps but happy in that the season was bright for you. I hope so many things for both me and you, but today, I especially hope you celebrate. Celebrate yourself and your life – I know in one way or another, they are both beautifully and wildly great.
