Autumn

making the most of my days

Glitter Guide

every month i say this, but how is it already October? the days pass by so quickly. and it has me thinking – how do i make the most of each day? how easy it is to wish our time away. to look forward to the weekend. to wish for autumn weather, then snow on Christmas, new life, and swimsuit season. there is always something to look forward to and always something that gets left undone.

โ€œOur
life is made up of time. Our days are measured in hours, our pay measured by those
hours, our knowledge is measured by years. […] And yet time eventually runs
out and you wonder in your heart of hearts if those seconds, minutes, hours,
days, weeks, months, years and decades were being spent the best way they
possibly could.โ€ โ€• Cecelia
Ahern
this autumn season i want to make the most of these days. i found this fall to do list on Glitter Guide and i think it is a fun challenge. some of these things will be easy for me to do – host a bonfire, go to a pumpkin patch. and the rest are things i want to do, i just don’t make the time – master making an apple pie, take a getaway to the mountains.
join me if you want in making the most of these days. i will be checking off each of these things on the list and blogging about my experiences along the way. 
i don’t want to take for granted these days the Lord has given me. the time in this season now. i want to spend time with people. listen to the Lord in the stillness. and live without regrets. 
what is something you want to do this October?
what do YOU not want to miss out on?

    LOVE THIS. I've really been feeling the days fly by me this week and so want to make the most of each day. This was the exact perspective changer that I needed.

    This October I want to go hiking, watch the leaves change color, and bake until my jeans don't fit.

    Okay, scratch that last part. ๐Ÿ™‚

    love this! I love sunflowers too! And I am planning a getaway with my family to the mountains (the Bavarian town of Leavenworth, Wa!), and cider donuts sound heavenly!!
