Fall Back.....

It's been fun seeing all the Halloween postings on Facebook...lots of cute, scary and fun costumes!  Along with all the Halloween festivities for all the kiddos, it was also time to fall back and set our clocks back an hour.  Ahhh, that extra hour of sleep was definitely appreciated!

How does the time change affect you?  It does take a couple weeks, at least for me, to get used to it getting dark around 5-5:30 pm.  Since, I'm a morning person it's nice that it's lighter in the mornings, but those early dark evenings are hard to adjust to for awhile.  I don't think it bothers me too much, other than wanting to go to bed earlier perhaps for awhile.  Otherwise, fall is my favorite time of year, so I'm ready for the cooler temperatures, leaves changing color and hot chocolate to warm me up!

Just another season...nature's season...but, we all go through different seasons of life, too.  Some come and go, some are brand new and some we'd rather forget, but they are all seasons that show us a new perspective, push us forward and hopefully make us a better person in one way, shape or form after the season has passed.  They aren't as predictable as the four seasons of mother nature, but the lend themselves as the backdrops to our life's journeys and the seasons that we encounter.  

So, enjoy the season you are in and make memories that will carry into the next season!  We might have fallen back with our clocks, but may we move forward with faith, joy and love today and everyday!!  Many blessings to you this first day of November!
