Last week I mused about the passage of seasons, and how I love autumn. This week I have to say that all four seasons have something I love about them. I love the summer for its abundant daylight and warmth. I love the autumn for its colorful leaves and the cool breezes. I love the winter for the snow and the beauty of it when it first covers the ground. Autumn did finally come this week bringing rain....too much rain in some parts. Poor Darby! They have come to expect some flooding, but not like what happened last Friday.
Last week I also heard some bad news about one of my cousins, and reflected again on my own life. Selfish, I know...but sometimes it's helpful too. I often wonder at times like this about how my life reflects on others. What will they say about me? I'm hoping that I will have made a difference and that my life reflected the life of my Lord. Yet, the scary part is that too many times I take the selfish way out. I reflect only on myself, forgetting others and soon that passage of time creeps up and I'm left with nothing to show for my life. I can't really say anything about my cousin who died, as I barely knew him at all.
