Change.
Here in New England, October is full of changes. It’s getting colder. It’s getting darker. The leaves explode with their vibrant fiery colors, the foliage the defining signature of the season know as Fall.
As each season has it’s own unique characteristics, each will be rendered impermanent by time as one season eventually transitions into the next.
But some things need never be seasonally fleeting.
Like love.
And kindness.
The winds of the world can at times be cold and relentless. We can choose to respond with an equal degree of harshness and indifference, or we can choose to rise above the storms swirling within us and around us.
Love and kindness are always an option.
Regardless of the season.
