Heightened Senses

I was speaking with some folks outside chapel this morning, and was struck by the sight of leaves falling off a tree. It was so beautiful, and made me slow down and admire the wonder of God's creation.

I've always loved fall. The colder weather makes sleeping much cozier and deeper, I can wear sweaters and long-sleeved shirts I haven't worn in months, the trees turning and the smell of fall in the air is something I'll always associate with happy thoughts of upcoming holidays, football games and hayrides.
