I Love Fall

I Love Fall

I love fall! Everything about it appeals: the crisp early mornings, the crunch of dead leaves beneath my feet. Who can resist pumpkin spice and hot apple cider? The cooler weather is invigorating and makes me want to go outside and be more active. I love the deep red and orange of autumn flowers and turning leaves. When the leaves fall, they coat the ground and insulate it against a long, cold winter.

As nature prepares for a difficult winter, I wonder. Now, when the world is beautiful and all is well, what am I doing to insulate my soul? How am I preparing for those cold, inevitably wintry days of my soul? What about you? How do you prepare your soul for times of difficulties?

After raising a family and then teaching for over 20 years, I retired from full-time work. Now I spend time with family, tap dance, take long walks in nature, read, and write. I have published two stories in Chicken Soup for the Soul books and over a dozen devotions. My current goal is to publish a book of meditations over the gospels and to share my devotional writing on my blog. I hope you enjoy and are inspired.
