october blues

i think i got hit with the october blues yesterday. it wasn't too bad, but it was definitely a little slap. not hard enough of to push me off track, but strong enough to invade my mind with... thoughts.. and kick my engine into gear..?

this morning i was considering that it's currently a bit of a transitional period.. at least where i'm right now. from summer into autumn. days becoming cold, dark and short. me myself turning a year older.

it's important to acknowledge these cyclical moments.

and i guess my way of coping with it has been to turn up the dials on some of the things that have been brewing inside of me. i'm back to music again.. pushing it out of me.. and i've only very recently began this secret little project.. just a little self-indulgence. i won't even share it. as it might break the spell. but i've started it.

anyway.. i do realise that my answer to this bluesy feeling of transition kind of looks like covering myself into distraction.. and in part this might be true... but i do hope there's some self-discovery into this entire process as long as i can combine it with writing. i think that will be the key. to log and process.
