Thankful Thursday - Fall.



"Such a feeling's coming over me. There's a wonder in everything I see. Not a cloud in the sky. Got the sun in my eyes and I won't be surprised if it's a dream." Karen Carpenter. 

It's over. Summer is done, finished. Two months of easy living, hanging with family and friends - lazing around - evening bike rides, hiking the wooded trails, swimming - bbq's - over.

September 1st signals the start of new adventures - new goals, buckling down, working hard towards achieving dreams, goals, purposes. 

Every season to me is exciting but one of my favorite is the Fall. I love the changes that begin to slowly happen in nature - changing of the leaves, -cooler temps, migration of birds, and with those changes - back to routines and being on the edge of new beginnings. Things that closed during the summer are up and running again, groups, committees, workshops, and kids back to school. People return ready, eager, fresh, excited.

Every season has it's beauty. Happy Thursday, Guys.

It's true all seasons have their beauty, some more than others ;) ... I love the fall, it really is a time for change and routine at the same time. I adore the summer more and more these years, probably because I live in a province that has long winters... xox

Yes there is beauty in watching the seasons change. Just amazing to notice it.

I love your photo here Nikki ...

For me my two favourite seasons are Spring and Autumn ...
I love this time of year the changes in colour nature brings, those walks with leaves crinkling beneath our feet, coming home to enjoy some wonderful soup - yes we may be only a few short weeks away from a chillier day and wonderful new colours ... bliss.

Have a wonderful month of September

All the best Jan
