A few days ago I was whining about the leaves not changing fast enough for my liking. It’s been an exercise in patience, for sure. Sometimes, okay, often I am impatient, wanting things immediately, like a little child. Lucky for me my friend, St. Teresa of Avila, reminds me that I need to trust God in all things, even in adversity, even when things aren’t going on the timeline that I want.
Let nothing trouble you / Let nothing frighten you
Everything passes / God never changes
Patience / Obtains all
Whoever has God / Wants for nothing
God alone is enough.

I’m so glad that autumn color found you finally! It’s been pretty in my part of the metro area too. I cherish every day the backlighting makes the foliage glow. btw, it was very cool that episode to see you cheer up as the hour progressed!
ah, yes, getting together with friends has that effect, kind of like the backlighting in the picture, right?
