Dear Ones,
** My gate house is covered with ivy that has over grown the fence and the roof
of my entry way. I didn't plant this ivy and I didn't want it to out compete
the Clematis and Jasmine that I did plant. But at this time of year it is
swarming with buzzing pollen laden bees so I forgive it for taking over. Even
though this isn't what I wanted I have to trust that nature knows best what is
needed in my eco-system.
The local bees must need this ivy, which blooms in the fall, so they can stock
up for the cold winter months. So I am happy they are humming and my heart is
relieved to remember that there is a wisdom so much greater than my own.
I too am humming with lots of projects and programs this fall. I keep thinking
that the Fall will be a time to slow down but somehow it is still the start of
new school year. I have several programs that are starting this Fall and
invite you to join me and pass along the the information to friends.
