Just the other day I mentioned how I loved that it was 1140, crickets were still chirping, my windows were open and my house was not steaming. Last night, I wore socks to bed and turned on the space heaters! Only a few days have passed since the equinox, yet autumn seems to not be messing around. The lonely wind has been wailing these past few days, with a slight gloom trailing behind. The trees seem to be whispering secrets that I cannot understand. The hype of the harvest is filling the air as people prepare for . . . Halloween *shudder*. . . and Thanksgiving. That is the one thing I do not like about autumn--Halloween. Something about it bothers me, but those are details that I do not wish to enter into at the moment.
I look forward to this year's holidays, for they will be the last ones for a few years that are "normal" for me. My family is moving to another country due to business. That means a new language, a new life style, and the making of all new friends. This also means that I will be missing my family terribly at some point or another, and I know they will be missing their grandson/nephew very much as well. However, this is a good thing. I must focus on the positive. God never brings us to something that He cannot get us through. He will provide me the courage to get to know other people, as well as the strength to be away from those I love for so long. He has brought me so far; I could never manage without Him.
