Autumn Life

 It's October now, and the leaves have been changing colors and swirling about.  This is my favorite season.  Yet this time I feel a bit sad, from losing Lilly in August.  She always loved autumn too, enjoying sunshine days on the screened porch, and cuddly evenings with me and Luke, and the past two years with Merci.


Life goes on, always in memories, in hearts, in spirit.  Somehow I do not feel a dread about the future, I just feel as if I am getting closer to home, our heavenly home.  Although I feel the sadness, I also feel the hope and upcoming joy of eternal life.  Not time yet though - I must live in today.  I will enjoy the beauty around me, the leaves, the pumpkins, the colors of fall.  The comfort of life - how fortunate to have this. 

Enjoy life as best as you can.  Some days are real terrors, others are pure joy.  Keep the faith, and the hope, and overall the love.     Theresa M
