As mother nature preps for her deep sleep, let us all remember the importance of rest!!

Take rest; a field that has rested

gives a beautiful crop.

I am a HUGE fan of the colder months, much to many of my friend's disbelief. Besides the fact that I don't do well in the heat, I find that the cooler temperatures offer many opportunities to curl up and take a moment to pause. Similar to what much of Mother Nature does, burrowing down, underground to regroup and recharge.

So as we head into October and the next few months full of holidays, merriment and many gathering, I felt a good quote for this month's calendar is a friendly reminder of the importance of taking a rest!!

Happy October!!

Pay attention!!! Stay eager!!!!

“Do stuff. be clenched, curious.

Not waiting for inspiration's shove or

society's kiss on your forehead.

Pay attention.

It's all about paying attention. attention is vitality.

It connects you with others.

It makes you eager.

stay eager.”

Susan Sontag

Summer is on its way ...

“It was June, and the world smelled of roses.

The sunshine was like powdered gold over the grassy hillside.”

Maud Hart Lovelace, Betsy-Tacy and Tib

Betsy-Tacy and Tib was a favorite for me and the girls for bedtime reading!

This month, let us never cease from thinking ...

...Let us never cease from thinking--

Virginia Woolf, Three Guineas

Thank you Virginia Woolf, for this most appropriate quote for this month of learning, 

September when many are heading back to school and work.  

To me thinking and questioning and exploring is so important for us all ~ 

I believe that we are students all our lives.  

Happy Learning & peace, Virginia
