Journal Walk: peaceful and serene
The beauty in fall.
The color in the trees and crispness of the air.
The wisp of leaves burning in my neighbors backyard.
The sences seem to be more alert than in the lazy days of summer.
Makes you want to make applebutter or pumpkin pancakes.
Then think of the autumn of life.
People themselves seem to become more colorful as they age. They have experience tucked under their belts...some tucked tidy and neat and some with an array of disrevelness.
Some age gracefully, some clumsy and forgetful.
But strange...the clumsy and forgetful seem to be the more colorful.
Kind of how the different trees color.
There is the birch that simply turns a rusty yellow and falls..and the maple that bolts out a bright red or orange against the brilliant blue skies.
Life is like that.
