Beautiful writing and reflection. This November has given us extended warmth, magnificent tree colors and Northern Lights. We all know winter is coming. Saoring these golden days can help us be like solar panels and give us stored energy to carry on.
Like many others, I also enjoyed reading this post that felt like a journal entry. I love the imagery of transformation, and how it mirrors the different seasons of our lives. I’m glad you are feeling the beginning of a change in pace to something slower and peaceful in your part of the world. I’m waiting to feel it more fully here as it seems the only two seasons we have are heat and maybe less heat. 😎 But with temps still in the 90s I’m feeling the need for those more restful moments of cool and relaxation. This post made me feel a little bit of that for today. Thank you. So glad you shared this with us Deb. 🤗
I'm so glad this gave you a glimmer of a cooler, quieter autumn. The Texas heat definitely makes it a different experience. Hope you're doing well and savoring the quiet in your own way. 💗
What a beautiful post! It feels almost like a journal entry -- an inside view into your life and into life itself. I loved hearing about the other November day when the trees were "skeletal" and how your book is "lighting candles in places I'll never see." Such beautiful lines! I almost wrote, "life" instead of lines! And, that reminds me of what you said about someone getting tired of missing her life (out of fear). Thank you for this glimpse into your life and reflections, Deb. 💗
November is the month I found the magical Amazon headwaters trail in the woods, five years ago. I stumbled upon it. When I peeked up on that muddy trail into the trees, I thought, if ur tears treacherous, I’ll turn around. I didn’t turn around… instead I fell in love with that trail.
Ahhh, such a wonderful word capture of how it feels, yet it also increases my awareness and unrealized fondness for just what you described. I will notice more of the soft unspoken comfort of November, thanks to you, Deb.

"Be like solar panels..." I love that, Mary! xoxo

Thank you so much, Heather. I love that you almost wrote "life"....that would have fit, too. 💗
Now I feel like a lovely November nap and a snuggle with the cat, dog and hubs. Thank you! Beautiful piece.
Thank you, Shannon. A November nap and snuggles...nothing better.

Beautiful ode to a month that feels like a season in-between seasons.
Nice line: “He was fine. I was fine. The day was fine”
