OK, summer’s gone bye bye. Get over it!

At least that’s what I tell myself. But it’s hard letting go of the long sunny days, chatting with good friends and family, and the relaxation — oops! — not so much on the relaxing since I’ve been writing all summer. But I’ve had some good porch time, long walks, and some wonderful times with people I love. I feel very blessed.

I like to keep my eyes open for creative t-shirts in the summer, and I especially like this one, which proman snapped for me. It’s a good message for summer but also for starting up a new year in the fall. Why are we here? Hopefully we don’t need a t-shirt to tell us, but it doesn’t hurt to be reminded from time to time that we are here to heal, to love, and to create.

May the months ahead — and your life — will be filled with all.
