Frolicking happy-go-lucky like as I kick up dried fallen leaves on the sidewalks, crunching them like nut and chocolate bars beneath my feet. We are having autumn, this is something the calendar has taught me, but how about these warm springtime-like outdoor temperatures!? We are having springtime in the Fall!
Watching the lake waves rolling in, during November, waters looking deceptively warm, but how could this be?? It is autumn! A weak wind blows off the lake, too weak to splash in angry waves, the waters are placid and having autumn at the beach but without a cool breeze confuses my brain.
November, it should be a time of blistery winds, and cool crisp, cold air, but what we are having is sunshine and sprinkles of warm rain, but how could this be? Autumn colors are here, the leaves have changed colors despite the global warming.
The bugs are prevalent, watching ladybugs land on my arms, their black spots on orange bodies, then opening their wings and buzzing off. Visited by insect friends, who are not in hibernation because the temperatures are too warm. Food prices will skyrocket because bugs eat the plants, harvest digested by bugs, small quantities of food remain but at high prices because of the food's scarcity.
Warm temperatures in autumn, a miracle yes! We can go outside in our parks and push our babies in their swings, but here is a warning: do not get overly gleeful because snowstorms will be approaching!!!
The seasons will change, but we never know what they will change into. Who knows? Only G-d knows! Purim during Hanukkah? Yes, it is a miracle, G-d sends us miracles and what we do with them depends on our wits and our wily ways, survival and thrive-al is the name of the game.
