I'm off to the cabin for the weekend!Galen Pearlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10189831838630645863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-598434020557723929.post-80635343322913755432017-10-05T21:33:15.919-07:002017-10-05T21:33:15.919-07:00Autumn to me is a month of change.

I enjoyed reading your post about courage and surrender. <br />I found your thoughts on the associations of Autumn very interesting. From a medical perspective I related to Organ and the explanation of the lung in association with Autumn. Probably the emotions were where I felt the most connection. I was a Hospice Nurse for 7 years and dealt with grief at its rawest. I liked the thought that courage allows us to surrender to the experience of our sadness and grief. I enjoyed very much learning about these associations with Autumn. <br />I do love living in an area where we enjoyed all the seasons. <br />Have a wonderful weekend!

When I lived in the tropics, I was so thrown by the absence of the four seasons I recognized. Instead it was hot season, rainy season, and cool season (like our summer here!). So confusing! <br /><br />I love what you said about surrendering to the seasons.

I've just learned of the 5th season - late summer - thanks to you. I'm mindful of endings and beginnings. The colors of fall in NE Alberta are inspiring. I think of the bounty that the earth offers up. It's a time of storing up for the winter which is a time of restoration for me. Snow means slow. I've learned to surrender to the seasons. Say grace.

It could not have come at a better time as all of us are feeling sadness and grief after the terrible tragedy in Las Vegas. May God grant us the grace and courage to acknowledge those feelings and embrace them as we move on with our lives.
