To a Child, Love is Spelled T I M E




"To the world you may just be someone,
but to someone you be the whole world."


We hope you are enjoying the change of seasons, wherever you may be.  Here in the Mountains the leaves have already peaked and are rustling to the ground on the breeze.  The squirrels and moose have been frequent visitors to our neighborhoods, and the geese sing their farewell at dusk and dawn.  It's time to consider the darker days ahead. For us it's a time of pulling in, recollecting the events and travels of the lovely summer we both enjoyed, stacking the "to be read" books near our favorite chair and filling the pantry with the rich, soothing ingredients that will become just the comfort we need on that first stormy day. The days ahead will be filled with holiday preparations and gatherings with family and friends, and snowshoeing through the meadows when the snow begins to fly.  It will be a time of quiet contemplation, too.  "Nesting" days to consider where we've been and where we're going, what's working and what needs adjusting, opening ourselves to the deepest stirrings in our soul with the time to see and hear them. It's a good time to be present to ourselves, and others.

The film we included in this post touched us.  We hope you will enjoy it too, and perhaps will find a quiet fireside to consider your place in someone's world.

Autumn Blessings!
