Dear Reader,
Autumn is here and with it is the temporary sleep or death of much of the beauty around us.
As an example, you can see the immense effort the leaves on the trees make to die. They fall in single blazes of glory, a magnificent swan song of departure.
With this metamorphosis in our lives each year, we might pause and reflect upon what we might retire or transition to better things. Clear it out and make way for the renewal in spring.
Because, yes, spring will eventually come bearing gifts of hope and fresh beauty for anyone with a mind’s eye to see it.
