Autumn thoughts

It has been a while since I put any work or words into this Blog.  And as I sit here and look out my window, I notice that as some of the taller/larger trees have lost their leaves, I can see other trees and bushes that still have colorful leaves.  Isn't that the way it is with people?  Sometimes we can't see the quieter folks for those that seem to be more overt.

I have been very aware that I need quiet time to listen and to just be.  I attended a 5 Day Academy in Spiritual Formation in September, that was so powerful on many levels.  Not the least of which was an acknowledgement that I am unique, but not really different.  A spiritual connection that I tried to describe in a message to my fellow congregants a couple Sundays ago,

And then I have considered letting others know about this blog- do I have something to share that someone else might find useful?  Is it my time as a less visible tree to open myself to others?

I will listen.
