Clocks! Back! :-))))))))

Back to Nature's time, went the clocks.

You did remember, didn't you? ,-)


Whenever I change clocks backward or forward, with Day Light Savings Time, I remember Great Aunt Josie. I know I've told this story here, many times. But there may be new readers... So I'll tell it again.

My Great Aunt Josie always said... When the clocks were set ahead in the Spring... that she "would never be the same again, until the clocks were set back in the Fall." And I'm sure she believed this. :-)


Great Aunt Josie passed on, many years ago. But I'm growing more and more, to agree with her. Not to the extent that "I'll never be the same again, until Fall." But to the extent that, I simply feel better somehow, to be back on Nature's Time, in the Fall.

It only seems fitting. We in modern life, have turned our back on Nature's Ways, in so many things. But personally, I like to live my life, by the constant rhythmic rising of the sun and setting of the sun. No matter what the clocks say!!!!!

Grumpy, hu? -grin-

Brings a cozy feeling to a home...

Be like the sun and the meadow, which are not in the least concerned
about the coming winter."
~~George Bernard Shaw

"It is the glory and the worry of heavy laden boughs, the preparation of the pantry for winter. It is the bloom of the land, preserved."
~~Amy Machamer


And now comes November... I really like the above quotes, don't you? Much better than the old English saying...

"No fruits, no flowers, no leaves, no birds, November!"

^_^

Rather, let's think of sitting by the fire. And of warm stews simmering on the stove. And of twilight coming sooner, which brings a cozy feeling to a home. Close the drapes... Light some candles... Curl up in your favorite chair, with a comfy throw or blanket over you... Kind of settle down into home and hearth.
