I can smell autumn dancing in the breeze.
The sweet chill of pumpkin and crisp sunburnt leaves.

Much of the confusion we experience in this life comes from simply not understanding who we are.
Discovering who we really are is part of this great adventure called life.
Dieter F. Uchtdorf


Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.
Jim Rohn

Never does nature say one thing and wisdom another.
Juvenal (1st 2nd century AD)

Nature’s first green is gold
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf’s a flower;
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
— Robert Frost

Never say there is nothing beautiful in the world anymore. There is always something to make you wonder in the shape of a tree, the trembling of a leaf.
Albert Schweitzer

There is a time in the last few days of summer when the ripeness of autumn fills the air.
Rudolfo Anaya

The opposite for courage is
not cowardice, it is
conformity. Even a dead fish
can go with the flow.
Jim Hightower
