Stratford upon Your Face

Welcome fall!

Ah, the winds of change. I love it when I can feel the coming of fall in the air. It first greeted me at the park during the hurricane break, but then again this past weekend at the lake. Now, walking outside today, there is no doubt that fall is here and will only be getting stronger. Until, of course, it stops being fall and then it's winter. Which is annoying.

So why do I like the fall so much? I don't know, maybe it's the fact that the weather brings with it on it's cool, damp winds an air of all those sweet things that have come to pass in the months leading up to it. Maybe it's something simple, like the idea of the state fair and remnants of my childhood excitement for Halloween. There is the chance that it's the promises of family time together when we'll enjoy each other's company and reminisce on times spent with those long gone.

Yes, I think the reason I like fall the most is because it, unlike other seasons, doesn't bring with it a sense of some theme or personality. Instead it seems content at serving as but an enhancement to time already spent and memories already made. A time of quiet reflection in the twilight of another year. Indeed, fall is the punctuation to the sentences in the stories of our lives.

The lizard always gets his bug. Just like you always get tired and go to bed. DON’T ACT LIKE YOU DON’T!!!!
