I wish I understood the beauty in leaves falling. To whom are we beautiful as we go?

The burden of living one’s own life is experiencing sensations that no one else can share.

Image
One leaf left on a branch and not a sound of sadness or despair. One leaf left on a branch and no unhappiness. One leaf left all by itself in the air and it does not speak of loneliness or death. One leaf and it spends itself in swaying mildly in the breeze.
