There comes a point in November - we aren’t quite there yet, but I can sense it in the air - when suddenly, all the leaves are gone. I’ll notice it first on my drive home from school. Then I’ll see it at twilight from the living room. It’s a hard transition for me. Though I know that the stark Winter season of rest is the only way for the re-birth of Spring, I’m never quite ready to say goodbye to the fully-leafed trees. This year, Winter is harder to embrace because of my current mobility limits, which are made harder by the cold. Usually, the twinkling lights of December will help me to embrace Winter. I’m hopeful that will be the case this year as well.
