Fall's Promise

FALL’S PROMISE The fall has promise! And for all of the joys of folk song and festival, of changing colors and lingering warmth, the frosty subtexts of evenings and mornings are invitations and warnings about the seasons of winter – the winter that is dark, the winter that is cold, the winter that eventually turns bright, and that worst of all seasons: that last lake-effect that is winter too long! Do not fight this gift! Settle in with yourself for five or six months of cold weather blues and the renewal of you!
