Autumn - a second spring

The leaves are officially turning and it's really dark now when I get up in the morning. While this time of year can be beautiful, living here in Seattle I also know it means that months of a rainy, dark winter lie ahead -- which can be a little depressing to think about.  Then I ran across this beautiful little quote:

Autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower.  ~Albert Camus

It inspired me to think a little more positively about the change of seasons.  And enjoy the beauty while it lasts. I can worry about the long winter later.
