Equinox

It may be near 90 degrees outside right now, but the calendar, the crisp morning air, and the sassafras tree in my back yard all agree: my favorite season has arrived.

Some people are marking the occasion by producing new winter wear or cool weather fare; I’m celebrating with crunchy local apples, an indoor microgardening scheme for the coming cold temps (stay tuned!), and a resolve to follow Ma Nature’s example and scale back for a bit. An adjustment of priorities is overdue, as a very important person reminded me just last night.

I’m paying attention to the equinox’s little reminder about balance, and appreciating that it comes clothed in sunset colors.
