All across the concrete pavement are darkened imprints of leaves, blown from the trees,  with brown pods stuck to the surface from the dampness of the night.  The white-turned rusty-colored stains, reveal residue from the rough rains and shifting winds of a new season. Above, the birds cluster together, flying atop one another sacrificing pattern for company.  This initiation into fall reminds of how when changes come, scarring our familiar peace with unexpected shifts, the nearness of others brings the stable back to focus, and generates energy to fly into the coming season with strength.

Who brings stable energy in to your life? Who do you need to move closer to today?
