Autumn of Solidarity

As my Summer of Bliss Tour comes to a close, I reflect on what an amazing and positive experience it was to create a theme or mantra for that season. It allowed my energy and attitude to be focussed on staying true to the theme, as well as setting new goals and daily musings accordingly. Some of the simple yet lovely undercurrents of my Summer of Bliss included Stand Up Paddling more, packing picnics, changing my “to do” list to my “tah dah” list, sharing compliments and smiles with those around me and cherishing / making time / reaching out to friends.

Because of the economical and effortless outcome of the Summer of Bliss, and my wish to continue to enlist / utilize the aforementioned learnings, it’s time for me to delve into topics for autumn and what this season will mean. When September arrives I often think of the word “change.” The air begins to get a bit more crisp and smells fresh. You see the color of the blue sky become more vibrant and punctuated with bright marshmallowy clouds. I also think about connectedness and cohesion. We are getting prepared to finish out the rest of calendar year and need to remain focussed yet thoughtful.

This brought me to the word SOLIDARITY.

“Our SOLIDARITY is what gives us the credibility & power to make changes.”

sol.i.dar.i.ty: noun – unity of agreement of feeling or action, especially amongst individuals with a common interest. mutual support within a group. synonyms: unity, like-mindedness, agreement, accord, harmony,  cooperation, consensus, fraternity, mutual-support.

So there you have it. Entering into fall begins my Autumn of Solidarity. I hope to remain enchanted and inspired by my Summer of Bliss and continue uncovering new possibilities / setting clear intention and purpose paving the path for the new year. Won’t you come along?
