Hello Readers,
Joining in with Day 8 for Becky’s Squares Challenge and connecting with Dawn’s Festival of Leaves

The reflection for today is remembering a 2014 post (here) that shared a short story called The Last Leaf (1907) by O. Henry. The story is about outreach, connecting, hope, and will. My Favorite line is, “She has one chance in – let us say ten.” he said. “And that chance is for her to WANT to live.”
Below is a video with the story – and you can read The Last Leaf here

Thanks for reading –
So how are the leaves looking in your area?
I know many of you have spring upon you while some of us have autumn. The leaves here are just starting to lose their chlorophyl brining those nice “kinda” colors – and the weather has a nice coolness.

autumn colours are just beginning to appear here, think it is going to be a bit hit and miss, so as with most of this year it will be a case of enjoying the beauty where we can

Our leaves are beginning to be burnished – but nothing like the range of hues you have pictured.

Kind is a great theme. We can always do with more kindness. Behrman’s kindness knew no limits. I love O. Henry’s stories. He’s the master. This one shows the power of the mind.
