Get Messy Season of Seasons – Part 6 – Swallows Leaving

In Part 6 of the Get Messy Season of Seasons, I am choosing a Japanese micro-season, “Swallows Leaving”. It seemed appropriate on many levels. First it fitted my circled words perfectly (see on the video and on the photos below). Also, “Swallows Leaving” reminded me of letting go and transformation, two themes very dear to me.
