On a morning walk I took these pictures of trees on opposite sides of the street. While some trees lost their leaves quickly to the winds, others held on tightly to their leaves. It made me ruminate on how we can respond to adversity, we can choose to let go or hang tight to life and it’s goodness.

If you want to experience calm and beauty before the hustle and bustle of the day sets in, then I suggest you do an early morning walk.

I will awaken the dawn.
I will let these pictures speak for themselves…you be the judge of the beauty of Fall!
