As Autumn 2019 settles in, temperatures begin to fall and the days begin to grow shorter. Sunlight spreads over the red and gold carpet of fallen leaves as nature turns the page. Sweater season has officially arrived!
Autumn is the transitional period from summer to winter. It is a time of bright, brisk mornings, shorter days and longer nights. A time when the last September tomatoes signal summer's final goodbye.
Autumn is also a special time for reflecting deeper than usual. It's a time for letting go of all that is non-essential, that is not connected to your purpose, all that is holding you back from connecting to your destiny and realizing your dreams!
Autumn is the quintessential season of harvests, contemplation and reaping lessons learned. This Fall 2019 is the perfect time to reflect: Am I better person than I was at the beginning of the year? What can I do to become a better person tomorrow? That is the question!
More than anything else, however, Autumn is the season of Thanksgiving! It's the special season of appreciation and gratitude - a time to count your blessings, and name them one by one. Yes, a time to count your blessings, and see what God has done! Let's enter this new season with a new attitude of gratitude - an attitude of being a blessing to others!
Wishing You Abundant Blessings, Happiness and Success this Fall 2019, and Throughout the Year! God Bless!! ~ Kenneth Lillard
