A new season is almost here to reveal Mother Nature's flamboyant fancy dress!

'If there wasn't change... there would be no butterflies'
Have you sneaked a peek into the Joyful Simplicities for October? I did and..as always it's like opening a present of 'possibilities'! I both love and need Simple Abundance principles in my life. No doubt about that. The pages filled with constant reminders, suggestions and inspiration  to go confidently...with God...in the direction of my dreams. So far, I believe I've accomplished quite a lot...however...I have so much more to give to live the life I imagine. Imagination is such an open door of possibilities isn't it?

Packing for serving as a volunteer for Outside Kairos #11 at Wheatstate Camp is almost completed. Lovely that the first day of summer falls on the same weekend. Love autumn time...as I reflect upon a new inspiration 'Change is the revitalization of the soul'...so many thoughts run through my mind. The first thought is what my Mom said 'Change is the only thing we can really count on.' That has been proven to be true over and over and over again.

The talk I'm presenting is 'Preference through Christian Community'. The handouts I created are sweet that include...without change there would be no butterflies... I sure enjoyed adding glitter to the butterfly cut-out arts that I attached. 

Interestingly I have never seen so many many real butterflies around our farm house as I have this year. All different varieties of colors and sizes. So beautiful. Something that made my heart smile was replacing the battery of my butterfly jar (the monarch butterfly is so realistic and often when I walk into my room...she flutters as if she's happy to see me.
My interactive butterfly. Purchased at Wall-greens Drug Store last summer.
What are you plans this fall? I'm making one plan to go on a fall picnic with my husband...to linger as long as we can....

We will soon enjoy Mother Nature's flamboyant fancy dress won't we?
