There's a saying: "If you don’t take the old car out of the garage, you’ll never get a new car." This wisdom rings true in many aspects of life, especially in relationships. If we cling too tightly to familiar faces or situations, we may overlook the possibilities that lie ahead.

Life is both unpredictably chaotic and strikingly predictable. As we grow up, we are thrust into adulthood and the weight of responsibilities—bills to pay, careers to pursue, and families to raise. In the midst of this whirlwind, we often lose sight of who we truly are. As we navigate through the demands of life, we strive to be the perfect parent, the ideal spouse, and the consummate friend. Yet, in our quest to meet these expectations, we sometimes forget what makes us uniquely ourselves.

As autumn’s crisp air arrives, shifting routines bring both comfort and challenges. Marcie Manfredonia, owner of CBD Live Natural, in Bedford Hills, suggests, “High-quality CBD products can be a natural and effective ally in creating a more balanced and enjoyable autumn experience.”
