Fall is my favorite season and rather than issue a Gratitude Attitude for the whole season I thought I would single out a few of the reasons.
One of my most favorite things about fall that prompts gratefulness for me are the leaves changing color. I love the pockets of gold that present themselves amidst the green. I love seeing the deep reds (rare where I live but it happens every so often). Something shifts in my spirit when I see the colors changing. Perhaps it is gratefulness that I get the privilege of going through another season, that I live in a place so beautiful that my breath is taken away almost daily. Perhaps the colors changing speak deeper to me than the surface beauty. I connect deeply with transformation and changing and desiring my life to be colorful and full of beauty. Today I was driving in to work and my eyes were drawn to every pocket of fall color that was presenting itself. And then a friend posted the picture below on her FB and I just felt...grateful.
