Looking at this picture, I think of how Summer is gone and we are headed into winter. Autumn has always been a rough time of year for me. Well, I shouldn't say always. When I was still in school I enjoyed the start of a new year of learning. However, now, as I have lived many years beyond school, I find it difficult to accept the cooler, shorter days. Days that had been filled with warmth and sunshine are now grey, damp, and becoming cold. I have a therapy lamp to help my mornings and caffeine to help me throughout the day. It is much nicer not needing those things but God made everything for a reason. I believe that part of the reason I become sadden by this time of year now, is that I relate it to my sons going back to school and seeing less of them. Now they are grown men, on their own, with their own struggles and victories.
As my days begin and end in darkness, I leave you with much Light, Love, and Laughter. Blessings to all.
