The winds of fall arrived in my neighborhood this afternoon at 1:30, big gusts moving the treetops and blowing leaves everywhere.  This wind is different than the summer breezes we have had until today, this is serious, big wind that means business.  Have you finished your chores in preparation for the coming cold? Not much time left, so get to it!

 When I walk outdoors in the fall and the wind is blowing like this, I imagine that the trees are giving me a standing ovation and do my best.  Climbing hills is so much easier when you feel nature is supporting you!  

There is a place I can be where it is as if my breath is creating the wind and the wind is creating my breath.  The peacefulness is inspiring and I feel as if I am truly a part of nature and the cosmos.    Do you ever come to a place like that in your day? 

I encourage you to spend a few moments outdoors no matter the weather and see if you can tap into that place where the trees give YOU a standing ovation – I know you will be the change you wish to see in the world when you do!
