Falling into the Mood
It's coming whether we like it or not, so start falling into the mood - today. It may be easier to give thanks for any sunshine and warmth that we have for the rest of the season. Happy Monday to you, happy fall! — at the corner of summer and fall.
Happy Autumn!
And just like that, these words are done! Thank you for stopping by and saying hello, leaving your words behind... and just so you know, although much sun and shine were used up today, I can guarantee that there is still a little left in my heart. Have a most fabulous day! And keep on Forking! You know you want to!
I always post this poem down at the bottom of my posts. It is one that has become so near and dear to my heart. I only post the most famous part of it, but, wanted to post it in its entirety today.
i cried the way women on tv do
folding at the middle
like a five pound note.
i called the boy who use to love me
tried to ‘okay’ my voice
i said hello
he said warsan, what’s wrong, what’s happened?
and these are what my prayers look like;
dear god
i come from two countries
one is thirsty
the other is on fire
both need water.
i held an atlas in my lap
ran my fingers across the whole world
and whispered,
"where does it hurt?"
it answered,
"everywhere"
"everywhere"
I have to admit I never saw that movie. I am going to tell Sis to put it on the top of the list. I have heard you mention it several times, so I want to check it out.
I have to say it is sad how so many people struggle to find themselves. I just like to be me, I cant say what me is exactly coz I am not afraid of change, I rather embrace it. I like to learn and try new things and not afraid to say I dont know something lol. I think it has to do with confidence. I never was afraid to wear my own kind hat, or purse, or be pretty in pink lol.
All of these flower photos are so beautiful, but they cant even hold a candle to that last one of you. Wow!
I can't believe you have never seen that movie and you own a girl! I can't believe that you have a girl over 14 and she has not seen that movie yet! But of course oh, it is before her time so she is excused.
I like to be me also and I have never really struggled to find myself oh, perhaps I'm just not that deep? I don't think that I worried about who I was oh, I just was. I'm not sure if that makes any sense.
As beautiful as the Autumn is, I still have trouble letting go of Summer. With Summer disappearing there goes all my beautiful flowers! I'm either going to have to work off my files or take a trip down south. The trip sounds more enticing at this point, but I'm not so sure that work would agree. You know the flattery will get you everywhere. LOL
Have a great night and I hope the rest of your week goes well. Thank you so much for taking the time to stop in and say hello and leave your words behind.

Gorgeous flower photos, as always! I am going to watch Pretty in Pink for the gazillionth time myself now. I was singing the song in my head the whole time I was reading your post. I just did a post today about not being ready to embrace fall. You have such a good attitude about everything; I should be more like you! Happy fall, Denise!

I need to see that movie. What a great message for us all. Thank you for all the wisdom, light and beauty you bring to the platform with your posts, @dswigle. They are are so fresh and uplifting!
It is an old one and I think I watched it when it was old and cold on the shelf, but, the message was still good. Your comments are always so kind and thoughtful, @jayna and much appreciated.
Of course, you made my day with it!
Have a most wonderful day ahead, as we head into the rest of the week!
