There's something about the color of a fall day that is indescribable. Every demographic has its own display. Some venues boldly flash trendy seasonal outfits while others silently remain on the sidelines, unnoticed by most but captivating to the few who pause to gaze at the quiet beauty. Florida fall is like that. It slips up on you and then slips away before most know it to exist. The slant of light, the flash of goosebumps across the arms, the gold of cypress, all say autumn is here, but you better look now.
They're already selling Christmas trees at Lowes. The marketers are pushing us quickly to the Yule Tide season without a bit of respect for the turkey, pumpkin pie, mash potatoes or stuffing of Thanksgiving. Days speed by into weeks so fast we'll be watching the ball drop in a flash. Is there something going on I don''t know about? Did the world start spinning faster while I was staring at the water?
Let us then pursue what makes for peace and for mutual understanding. Romans 14:19
Peace. Love, Linda
