Historical post greeting Fall

Hello September

Originally written by Coach Rai on September 7, 2017

I'm struggling to wrap my mind around the fact that it is September 7th already. I feel like spring and summer flew by. It is already fall. Leaves are already beginning to change where I am. Temperatures are getting cooler. I wanted to take the changing of season as an opportunity to chat with y’all about the seasons of our lives. We are all experiencing different temperatures and actual differences in climate depending on where we live. Thankfully, I never hear anyone complaining about the leaves falling and the pumpkin patches popping up. Sadly, I do hear people bickering over someone “needing” to have children or “needing” to get married or “needing” to do some other thing they aren’t doing. Much like the different climates we all live in, we are in different seasons in our lives. Fall in the southern parts of the country isn’t the same as fall in the northern parts of the country. Both are still beautiful. The stage of life I am in isn’t the same as any of yours. All are still beautiful.

If the seasons are changing in your life, if you feel you’re being pushed out of your comfort zone.. remember: we all revel in the beauty of leaves changing colors and falling off their branches. Revel in the changes taking place in your life. Appreciate the change of season and the possibility for new joy that comes with it. Celebrate this season in our environment and in our minds. Beauty is found in differences and change when we are willing to view it.

Be willing to embrace the beauty of the season you’re in.

Happy Thursday!

Have a wonderful month of September!
