REFLECTIONS OF AUTUMN

Autumn is a time for reflection after the hectic days of summer and in the past for me the breeding season and the weaning of foals.

While the leaves on the trees begin to change colour, the cycle of life reminds us to believe in what we see and  realise how fortunate we are to share our lives with all of our friends and family around us. Why not make an effort to catch up. Autumn also reminds me of beautiful, contented horses that have been the nucleus of our personal happiness and our great expectations for the past forty years.

Harvesting happens during the autumn season. This means the complete transformation of the life cycle takes place once mother nature has given her 100 percent. Perhaps, with luck you’ll see the benefits of all your hard work and effort. Autumn is also related to your future living.  How very apt for us that it signifies the lifestyle and the retirement stage of a person.

The season also reflects the end of sorrows and start of new beginnings. It can also signify that just like the seasons life will have new beginnings soon. Because Autumn is related to new beginnings, it can also encourage the search for a new job, new proposals, new property and success.

“Many people have a wrong idea of what constitutes happiness. It is not attained through self gratification but through fidelity to a worth purpose.”
Helen Keller (1880 – 1968)
