So if life must rush along, then I'm glad it's autumn again...my favorite time of the year, and October is my favorite month for various reasons: birthdays, football season, the St. Louis Cardinals in the playoffs! J Go Cards!

Below are some of my favorite
quotes about autumn:
"Listen!
the wind is rising, and the air is wild with leaves, we have had our summer
evenings, now for October eves!" - Humbert Wolfe
"Delicious
autumn! My very soul is wedded to it, and if I were a bird I would fly about the
earth seeking
the successive autumns." -
George Eliot
"Listen to the trees as they sway in the wind.
Their leaves are telling secrets...." -- Vera Nazarian, The Perpetual Calendar of
Inspiration
It is lovely season right now, and I hope it lasts long. I refuse to think about what comes after! Enjoy it, Becky.
ReplyDeleteLike you, I'm a bit in shock that time is flying. Thanks for the quotes. I like October too. Usually, it starts to cool down here. This year it's still hot, like summer, but I don't mind.
ReplyDeleteOctober is fine. Autumn is fine. Spring, which it is here, is fine.
ReplyDeleteI am dreading what comes afterwards though. And Christmas is only two heart-beats away as well.
Hi Becky! Another October Lover. Yes, I loved all the same things about October. And my son was born on Oct 22.
ReplyDeleteI'm with you, Becky! I love the fall season, and have a special affection for October. We are truly blessed to live in a place where the changing seasons bring such joy.
