Some time ago, I shared with you my decision not to publish my book, The Echoes of the Five Seasons. It wasn’t an easy decision, but deep inside I knew it was the right one.

Over the following weeks, I realized something important.

Every spring brings new beginnings. Every summer leaves us with new memories. Every autumn teaches us something different. Every winter invites a new kind of quiet. No matter how many essays I wrote, I knew there would always be another story waiting just around the corner.

So instead of placing those reflections between the covers of a book, I decided to give them a different home.

Today, I am happy to share the new Seasons section on my website.

There, you can explore my reflections organized into Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter. Some of the essays may already be familiar to you, while others may be waiting to be discovered for the first time.

The part I love most is that this collection will never truly be complete.

It will continue to grow, one season at a time, just as life does.

If you ever feel like slowing down for a few minutes, remembering a childhood summer, walking through an autumn afternoon, or simply enjoying a quiet moment with a cup of coffee, I hope you’ll visit this little corner of my website.

Perhaps one of the stories will remind you of a season from your own life.

Thank you, as always, for being part of this journey.

    1. Thank you so much! I really love the way you describe it as a “living document.” That’s exactly what excites me about this decision—the collection doesn’t need to be finished, because it can keep growing and changing with every new season and every new story.

    1. Exactly! That’s one of the things I love most about this idea. Every season and every ordinary day can bring a new memory, a new reflection, and another story for the shelf. The little library may never be finished—and I think that’s beautiful.

  4. I rather love this idea Georgi. A book eventually has to suffer the indignity of being finished, while the seasons have no need to respect deadlines. Besides, just when you think you have said everything there is to say about autumn, one particularly ambitious leaf lands at your feet and demands its own essay. Nature, it seems, has never heard of a final draft. 🙂

    1. I absolutely love this way of looking at it! “Nature has never heard of a final draft” could not be more perfect. And you’re right—just when I think a seasonal shelf is complete, one ambitious leaf, a first snowfall, or a familiar summer sound may arrive with another story. Perhaps that is the greatest freedom of this little library: it never has to be finished.

    1. Thank you so much, Rosie! I’m excited to see how it grows too, because I think that’s the beauty of this little seasonal library—it will never really be finished. There will always be another season, another memory, and another story to add.

      1. That is one thing I need to work on is the categories. Seems like a train that took off before I was ready and will take some work to bring it under control! Work I am not willing or prepared to do yet!

      2. I completely understand, Rosie! Categories seem so simple until you suddenly realize the train has already left the station with half the luggage still on the platform! There’s no rush though—the wonderful thing about a blog is that we can reorganize and reshape it whenever we’re ready.

  7. Looking forward to reading your thoughts about the different seasons. I’m trying to recall where you had your beginnings. Are you planning to write about childhood memories of the seasons, or your current location’s seasons? Thanks.

    I was hoping to read your thoughts on my last 2 posts. I understand that you’re probably very busy, now that school has started for your son.

    Anyway, I do really enjoy your fresh perspective on things.

    1. Thank you so much, Shirley! My beginnings were in Bulgaria, and yes, the Seasons section will include both childhood memories from there and reflections inspired by the seasons I experience now in Canada. I think that mixture of different places and different times in my life is part of what makes the collection special to me.
      And thank you for mentioning your posts! I’m sorry I haven’t made it to them yet. I’ll definitely try to catch up when I can. I always appreciate you reading my reflections and sharing your thoughts with me.

    1. Thank you so much! That means a lot to me, because I always try to write honestly about what I’ve experienced and learned rather than tell others how they should see life. I’m really glad that honesty comes through in my reflections.
