Imagination Holiday

Halloween is an imagination holiday.

You can be whatever or whomever you want. The only limit is your imagination.

As a kid we are Cinderella or a Pirate. As adults we are sexy nurse or a zombie stumbling though a lost, dead world. Fitting ‘eah?

As kids, our imagination is set loose and a world of possibilities opens. As we become adults and record all of the risks and fails life serves up, the outcomes of our imagination shift. New masks go on. Horror stories replace fairytales and fantasies.

Kids allow their Imagination to run wild creating endless possibilities of success and joy. Sdult imaginations create horror stories of failure and loss. These mind-based narratives fuel anxiety, panic, peril, procrastination and a lack of living.

Kid’s imaginations create narratives of impossibilities, drive hope and lead to triumph.

Try being a kid today and imagine all of possibilities life can bring and create hope in your world. If only for a single day.

Curtain Call

Making a Last Stand

Fall is looming. Won’t be long now before brown, red, yellow and orange leaves blanket the ground like a patchwork quilt and snow flurries.

Time for one last stand.

One final day of sunny glory and beauty before the mandated curtain call.

A partners time has already come and gone. So alone the final bow occurs yet is not without ceremony.

Ah, the moment is lurking.

Standing as tall as ever.

Fully bloomed and exposed. Glorious. A story quietly trumpeted.

Then, fall. Cold. Snow.

A spring, summer and final fall moment close the book on this natural beauty.
