It is in the darkest nights of our souls, when all we know is that we know nothing, that the presence of the sacred may quietly well up, mingling with our pain and connecting us to a love that will never die.

There is something enjoyable about walking among trees while they drop their leaves on me and around me, whether in a local park, a natural area or my neighborhood. Next time you experience that just close your eyes, allow the trees to bless you with their holy leaves. It may be an opportunity to experience the presence of the sacred. More photos of leaves to come.

During meditation sessions, focusing on your breathing is common – the slow inhale of air, a short pause, and then the slow exhale. With each exhale, you may feel a sense of release and relaxation, letting go of any tension and stress. For me, the season of fall feels just like that exhale. That realization just came to me while reading your post this morning. Thank you for that!
A little bolder on the content font, I see. 😉

I think Monte is in the Font Playground now. 🙂
Personally I would ditch the bold. It conflicts with the peaceful tone and writing.

LOL Now the question is how do I get out of here, Mark. I have thought about going back and having both of comment about it I will.

I agree with Mark; having seen them both, I do prefer the Normal 400-weight version of this font here.
Monte Stevens
I changed them back to the default setting. I like that weight also.

That is my experience, also. So glad for teachers. Glad you enjoyed the experience, what we can call life. Yes, I thought I would change it a bit. I may have gone too far. 😂

Autumn leaf collages are always fascinating. Nature throws them all around, willy-nilly, and yet they’re perfectly arranged. Lovely.

I have for some time felt the so-called chaos of nature is true art. It’s unsettling to me anymore to a yard that is almost perfect in the location of flower, trees, and shrubs.
