November; a Month of Gloomy Skies & Daring Decisions [Photo Thoughts]

in #blog5 years ago

For me, November is a very special month.

Usually, during this month a lot is going on .. mostly behind the scenes.

In Crete, the summer season is usually very stressful, and after November people are starting to live a more normal, relaxed life. It is a time that we have the opportunity, having a more clear mind, to review the summer time outcome and to make our preparations for next year, while taking important and sometimes life changing decisions.

This morning I was enjoying some curation time when I saw this inspiring and it brought back colors, smells and memories.

It was then when I decided that in the next few days (as I prepare some very important posts) ..

I will be posting a few of my older autumn pictures, sometimes with a story to go with :)

Take the Risk; Break the Walls Around You


This image was captured in the year that I took one of the most crucial work decisions of my life.

After struggling for a long time, I decided that I had to leave my job and take my chances as I would dive into the unknown & carnivorous business world.

I am not sure if all my decisions were correct, but I am sure that there are times that you just have to 'cut the strings' keeping you tied to the past, to old, unproductive habits. And that was what I did back then.

I may have struggled before and after, but I did manage to cut the knot and break free into what became my own world of choices.

And even if not all memories are nice, it is best to be left behind


Don't look back in Anger. Soften your heart and move forward, to the world of Hope

Oh what business are you into now? Is Nov stressful because Dec/Christmas is near? What do you prepare for the coming year? I haven't even thought past the 2nd wk of Dec... 😅

I was in a dependant form of work, while now I work in a much more autonomous way : )
Also, something I did not mention is that November is the month of my birthday so I keep thinking and evaluating my previous year (and sometimes get depressed for growing older :P)
Thanks for dropping by, I must admit it is a long time I did not visit your blog :(
See you soon!

Oh I see. Yeah I just saw your post when I logged in so I decided to drop by. 😁 I haven't been going around much the past few months too.

When's your birthday? Advance happy birthday... 😂 I also don't like it when it's my birth month but yeah, it's a fact we just keep getting older every yr. 😅

Thanks for the referral to @ruth-girl's blog. A wonderful November photo essay.
I love November--it is the month of birthdays in my family--two sisters, a husband and (yes!I'm afraid so) a granddaughter. Throw Thanksgiving in (US) and it's non-stop celebration.
Have a happy birthday month!

Σου εύχομαι Κατερίνα να έχεις πάρει ολόσωστες αποφάσεις... Άλλωστε αν δεν δοκιμάσεις δεν θα μάθεις και πότε...
Καλό ξεκίνημα στη νέα σου δουλειά...
και καλή ξεκούραση μιας και ο Νοέμβρης είναι μήνας ηρεμίας και ξεκούρασης...
