October, Magic, Enchantment? Sounds like a possibility.

Lovely, lovely October.  And there are so many ways to enjoy it. Even different levels of participation.  

The Basic Level: Requires little effort or creativity. You can certainly feel like you are celebrating the season at this level, but may I say that you get out of life what you put into it. But all levels of contribution are appreciated.  Whatever you can throw into the hat.  

A good start.  Seems a little lonely out there in the garden, don't you think?

Pumpkin on porch with vine.  That's a little more like it. 

What else have you got?

Well, hello!  A pumpkin transformed.  Naturally, too.  Some strange magic is at work here.  Does the pumpkin really have a face?  Does he really feel as worried as we perceive?  What in us makes the jump to a face and to emotion?  Whatever it is, I welcome it.  Part of what makes us human.  Maybe one of the best parts. 

 

Light and metal and glass.  But so much more in the land of imagination.

Upping the ante a bit here.  We add a frightened mouse.  What is she worried about?  

Her partner seems to be trying to remember where he left that rind of brie.   But our vigilant little friend still seems concerned. 

Yikes!  This is getting real!  

Back to non-reality.  

I guess we started by saying all levels of participation are appreciated.  And here's a level.  

Enjoy the season.
