    Falling and Fallen

    Autumn is here, bringing with it the drizzle of falling leaves and the carpet of those already fallen. Greens, yellows, reds, and browns, sometimes crowded together, sometimes by themselves. I wonder if they get lonely?

    Do leaves ever miss their branches or get lonely?

    You don’t have to …

    A personal trainer was cleaning up his equipment the other day in the park. He was wearing a shirt that said: “You don’t have to train today. The world needs average.” An odd combination of snarky and motivational. Nonetheless his shirt is a useful reminder that everyday is an opportunity to practice and through that practice to improve. So, to paraphrase:

    You don’t have to take a picture today, but think of all the photos you’ll miss.

    The leaves on the roads and the sidewalks remind us that fall is here.
