I can definitely see that.<br /><br />Every season has a place and purpose, which is something I didn't really get to see in Florida. I understand now why "transplants" missed their seasons and said we didn't have any. <br /><br />Reflection and thought aren't to be feared, but embraced, no matter what our culture around us screams. I like that there's a time to just settle down and think. I'm glad you're using it, though I'd expect no different from you.CrackerLilohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18176388186521154104noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-92131634535549929572010-11-09T11:10:44.733-08:002010-11-09T11:10:44.733-08:00a lovely post. so many of us lament the darker, sh...a lovely post. so many of us lament the darker, shorter days...yet gifts reside in those times when we turn inward and hunker down...it's important to be reminded of them.

The earth prepares to rest and sleep, days grow increasingly shorter, and the darkness comes.<br /> <br />However, it's not the darkness itself that's debilitating - it's how we "perceive" the darkness and what we do (or don't) to "feed our spirits."<br /><br />In the time when the earth rests, it can be a real time of self discovery and personal growth. Thanks for reminding me of that fact...Desert Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03484289454022517401noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10949041.post-44883196895036593052010-11-09T09:55:51.102-08:002010-11-09T09:55:51.102-08:00And with less sunlight, we won't be out in the...And with less sunlight, we won't be out in the garden, daydreaming.<br />A good reminder.

I like to light candles and my fireplace and allow the light to bounce around. I love making something delicious that simmers in the oven for hours and I like to hear the rain fall. There is something safe and snuggly about the fall and I try each year to embrace the parts of it I enjoy and I agree it's a time to reconnect to yourself and slow down.
