First Official Day of Autumn!

*Autumn gives us every opportunity to live an authentic life. Yet how easy it is to miss the little things in the pursuit of a “perfect” life! An authentic life is made up of recognizing beautiful moments in an imperfect world. It's not fresh flowers in crystal vases or perfectly decorated rooms you are too scared to really live in. We must discipline ourselves to linger even for a moment on those things so they will become emblazoned in our memory like a snapshot in a tattered scrapbook. Embrace the REAL life you live each day!
