Enjoying the Fall Colors

If there was ever a time to get outside to enjoy the sights, scenes and smells, it would be right now. The fall is the most beautiful time of year when the leaves are all changing colors, anywhere from a vibrant golden yellow to a bright firey red.

Find a window, spend your lunch outside, go for a walk, find any excuse to get outside. Even if just for a minute, because one day you’ll turn around and all those beautiful leaves flapping in the wind will be gone and blown away. You’ll have to wait a whole year to see it again.

Now, I know, it sounds like I’m really putting the pressure on, but why wouldn’t I? The fall is my favorite season and I could spend all day every day outside cold, warm, raining or sunny. I feel like, as a society, we spend too much time wrapped up indoors. We need to get outside and reconnect with the environment, as it provides us with just about everything we need to live. Maybe, and this is just a thought, if we all went outside to enjoy the day, if even for a few minutes, we might appreciate it more and want to do more to protect the environment.
