There is something beautiful and revitalizing about October.
When the leaves fall the world is surrendering.
Letting go of the pieces and parts that can no longer serve in a positive way.
Trees hold strong to their core and survive the storms;
but every good tree knows that as time goes by,
the leaves will come back and we all get to start again.

“September is dressing herself in showy dahlias and splendid marigolds and starry zinnias.
October, the extravagant sister, has ordered an immense amount
of the most gorgeous forest tapestry for her grand reception.”
Oliver Wendell Holmes
O suns and skies and clouds of June,
And flowers of June together,
Ye cannot rival for one hour
October’s bright blue weather.
Helen Hunt Jackson
“The end of the summer is not the end of the world. Here’s to October…”
A.A. Milne
