September

     We look back on a long, hot summer and forward to a season of harvest, new TV programs, and football.  Nature provides us with food and fall colors.  TV reruns are making way for something new.  Football fans have high hopes for their favorite teams.
     Many of us look back on a busy family life and forward to a slower paced retirement.  We reap the harvest of jobs well done, children grown, and added generations.  We have the opportunity to start something new and exciting.
     The days grow short when you reach September.  The end of the calendar is much closer than the beginning.  Get as much joy as possible out of all the seasons.  Also, give as much joy as possible in these precious days.
