September traditionally marks the end of summer. The vacations are over. Kids are back in school and engagement in the duties of life seems to increase. Fall then becomes a time of settling down. A time to center in our routines and perhaps a return to a rhythm that kindles the deeper parts of our being.
It is the time of the year to allow the stimulation of light and spontaneity to ebb, as it should, to give way to immersion. It is a time to ask ourselves what we can settle in to. What can we no longer avoid? What will kindle our spirit through the up and coming winter?
In our rear-view mirrors are the loves of summer. Looking forward, what will you create this fall?
