Six Word Story #202

Six Word Story #202

Six Word Story:

The leaves changed. You never did.

About This Six Word Story:

I feel like I haven’t written a six word story in quite a while and wanted to share one today. Actually, I was busy with another post but got caught up with some work and decided it would be best to publish something else today and publish that post next week. Anyway, you don’t need a whole history lesson about it.

Back to the SWS. It’s autumn/Fall (depending on where you live) for a lot of people living in the Northern hemisphere. And one of the things people associated with this season is the leaves changing. And it is something I love about the season and miss very much now that I’m in Kenya. So, I guess that was in my mind and that’s where this six word story originated from. I guess it got me thinking about how some change is so necessary and natural and yet many of us fight it. We fight so hard for things to remain the same even when we know change is the best option. Humans are weird, lol.

Do you like Fall? How do you feel about change? Let me know in the comments below because I would love to hear your thoughts. And don’t forget to leave your own six word stories or story in the comments. It can be with the same theme as mine or even something completely random. Or if you don’t want to do that simply just stop by and say hi!

    I don’t like change, especially in myself. But as I’m getting older and I read over my old journals from 20 years ago and I realize that I “have” changed, I am glad that I did. Thankfully, it seems to happen slowly enough that it doesn’t bother me 😀

      Sometimes we do change, and we never realize it. Like we gradually stop doing or start doing something and when we look back we see oh I didn’t used to do it a year ago 🤷🏻‍♂️

                      Yes, this is called the High Desert. Hence, it gets colder here than the Sonoran Desert which is south of Las Vegas many miles.

    I won’t say I’m a fan of this season, as it bring allergy with it. But good thing is I have no issue this time, maybe due to the ayurvedic medicines that I’m taking 🤷🏻‍♂️🤔
    Or the autumn never came 🤷🏻‍♂️
    Because it’s already started getting cold here. Seriously in India you cannot tell the seasons apart, like it rained last week, and it made my bike very dirty 🥹
    Now it’s cold, sometimes it’s hot.

    I was thinking about doing a post on changes today, too. You must have forgotten to turn off your mind control machine. 🙂

    I was thinking about how every cell in our body constantly changes, yet if you take a sample of bone marrow, you can see signs of nuclear fallout from the past. So essentially, every second, you are changing into a different person.

      and the tree is dying from salty tears
      and too many storms.

    I like change and especially enjoy living in an area where there are four seasons. It’s fascinating to see the trees outside our window go from pink buds in spring, rich green leaves in summer, amber and magenta leaves in fall and even when they are bare in the winter, their limbs look like works of art. I enjoyed your six word story, Pooja.

    I like Fall a lot. I was born in the Fall. I enjoy seeing the colors of the leaves, I actually look forward to seeing it every year. I like the feeling I get when I am outside. Change is something I don’t really like, but I know it’s a part of life, and I have most certainly changed and grown in a lot of ways. It has been a little while since you posted a SWS. Just keep up the good work that you do. Looking forward to the next one. Have a great weekend.🎃

    Love your story, Pooja. Very clever. And I love this season too. Change is inevitable, and if it’s a positive change then it’s easy to accept. If it’s the opposite, then it’s harder to deal with, but that’s life. I try to go with the flow, although it’s not always easy. Hope you have a good week ahead.
