September, I love you!

September is my favourite month of the year and a wonderful month.  We have been having the most amazing weather here in the south eastern part of the UK - sunny and warm.  I love the anticipation of autumn in September and the sense of beginning as well as surrender.  It also happens to be the birth month of some of my favourite people - my twin daughters, my late mum and my hubby.  What is there not to love?

Thoughtful Saturday

"To be human is to live by sunlight

and moonlight and

with anxiety and

admitting limits and

transcending them, falling down

and rising up.

To want a life with only half of these

things in it is to want half a life,

shutting the other half away where

it will not interfere with one’s bright

fantasies of the way things

ought to be”
