Fall in Review

For over 50 years (half a century) I have lived in the Midwest region of our country and I have experienced this transition of our environment into Fall and onto winter months.

It is a time, in the Midwest part of our country, where we adapt to profound changes in the environment and restructure our lives as we transition into winter.

I always get moody during this transitional time of year, because I remorse over the loss of summer and the warmth associated with such an explosion of life, but I know that it is a cycle of life that I am a part of, but I am still edgy over the inevitability of this change. Fall brings a refreshing perspective of what opportunities of life offer each of us as we work thorough our daily lives reconciling our existence upon this planet we call Earth.  Fall is a reminder that the course of life that we chose has its constraints and resulting outcomes, whether we accept it or not!

Fall is a time for students in our schools to engage in learning that can lead to a promising future that is welcomed by society which is ready for any contribution to save our world! These mixed aspects of Fall make it an entity that is both fleeting and essential for establishing continuity of what we become as a society.  Fall is a time to reflect on the merits of what each of us have contributed to our society and to bring forth outcomes that are additive to society’s well-being!


As winter approaches we brace ourselves for the trials of dealing with a world of increasing resistance to simple aspects like staying warm or navigating through streets of “black ice” and unexpected challenges, remorse and regrets. Winter demands resilience from each of us to face the challenges of life that define who we are and what we stand for as a society.
