I am a September child; flowering when nature was withdrawing… rising as the fall was happening … May be that is why I reverberate with thoughts of rebirth, recycle and resurrection!!

To grow, after all - one must shed 🍂
Enjoy 🍁

Just finished watching #YOU on @netflix.com and utterly disappointed with how they have undone this brilliant dark twisted narrative into an ordinary mass-pleasing drag of a show …
At this point, I would prefer reading post S2 fan fiction ….
