The years teach much which the days never know
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Ralph Waldo Emerson
We've had bluebirds in our neighborhood this year. We first noticed them while out walking in the spring. Chipper and friendly birds, they added lovely moments to many of our walks through the summer and fall. And then one evening in late September, three of them were in our backyard and entertained us while we sat on our deck and took some pictures.
The last warm sunny days of fall are slipping away and so are the bluebirds. We haven't seen them for several weeks.
It's a melancholy time of year. A time of several difficult goodbyes this particular fall. Goodbyes are hard. They just are. Like Mr. Emerson said, sometimes it takes years to put things into perspective.
