There's frost on the pumpkin and a nip in the air. It's time to snuggle up with a hot mug of soup. Welcome Cozy days of AUTUMN~~
AUTUMN LEAVES
SWEEP the leaves together, Yellow, brown and red
Let us make a bonfire, Now that they are dead.
CHESTNUT leaves and beech leaves, Ash, lime and oak
Fir-cones and pine needles, Kindle into smoke.
LEAVES that all the summer Gave us cool and shade
What will be left of them, When our bonfire's made?
ONLY death-like ashes, But from this same dust
Suns one day will fashion, Life anew, we trust...

How about FALL Resolutions?
(After 9 months of not keeping the new year's ones)
Give up complaining . . . focus on gratitude.
Give up pessimism . . . become an optimist.
Give up harsh judgments . . . think kind thoughts.
Give up worry . . . trust divine providence.
Give up discouragement . . . be full of hope.
Give up bitterness . . . turn to forgiveness.
Give up hatred . . . return good for evil.
Give up negativism . . . be positive.
Give up anger . . . practice patience.
Give up pettiness . . . put on maturity.
Give up gloom. . . enjoy the beauty that is all around you.
Give up jealousy . . . pray for trust.
Give up gossiping . . . control your tongue.
Give up sin. . . . turn to virtue.
Thought for the Day:
All of us could take a lesson from the weather...
It pays no attention to
criticism.

To every thing there is a season,
and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant,
and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
Ecclesiastes 3:1-2
