Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness
to learn
anything or anyone
that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

“The trees are in their autumn beauty, The woodland paths are dry, Under the October twilight the water Mirrors a still sky.”
William Butler Yeats
What do you think of October in general and what do you expect from October 2023?


------------

To me, October means relief from the scorching heat of summer and the beauty of nature at its most colorful best. It is the month that means transitional beauty. October is when the beauty of autumn with a rich array of colors and textures, cooler temperatures, and the sense of anticipation for what is to come takes hold.

October is also a month of harvest, of festivals, apple picking and pumpkin patches. Then, of course, the most iconic symbol for October is Halloween, here in the USA. With Halloween comes trick or treating, a lot of candy, parties, and horror movie marathons. In the sports world various competitions take place such as the Major League Baseball's World Series. In Canada, I believe, Thanksgiving is celebrated in October.

I don't know what we can expect from a month, any month that is. Life does what life wants, no matter what we expect from it.
