Foglie D'Autunno

Autumn has definitely arrived. The leaves are changing colour here on campus. This can be the period where campus appears at its most beautiful in the whole year, with all sorts of colours which can strike emotional chords inside of you, from the bright red to the Old looking grey-greenish and in between, shining yellow and green, the leaves which are in some stage of fade, there nothing quite like it! You should be here on campus, these trees take your attention from the ugly buildings of the university, they adorn them changing them from depressing to life-bringing! Walking through the Arcade which is between the Banks and the Library is a regenerating experience indeed! There is a spiritual breath of fresh air that comes along with the physical breath of spiking fresh air (I know that's not a real word, but it gives you the idea of what I mean, it's a poetic figure of style, ask Andrew McPoo Milne about it!). It's like - and actually is - being in a special place in nature, in a specific part of it's polydimensional existence, affected by the changes God brings onto it throughout passing time.
I don't know about you, but I am deeply affected by creation, I am really in awe of God's work that is nature, it really carries with it a sort of intimacy with myself and God, because when I'm on my own I can just spend the time to reflect about it and be silent and resting in it, while it is hard to find people who can just be comfortable with being in touch with it and be quiet, they always have to talk even if it is to say nothing. There's something powerful about just staring at the stars and the infinity of the universe. I think it would be so great to find another person to do that with, just being in the presence of creation with an equal who understands and humbles him or herself too...
The sun sets are great too at the moment, because they break onto the same trees creating new colours and an atmosphere of warmth in the freshness of autumn...
