Boo Boo's

   No, this is not about Halloween, although the stores are already gearing consumers up for one of Fall's holidays. This is an acknowledgement that I mistyped the time of our Deepening into Wisdom circle last Thursday. This monthly gathering is always from 6:30 - 8 p.m. In fact, every evening event we have meets at that time. It seems a wise choose to keep events within the same time frame for convenience. Of course,  when the person blogging puts an incorrect time, that can lead to some confusion. 
    Speaking of the Deepening into Wisdom circle, last Thursday's was a deeply personal and intimate gathering. It was the first time we gathered around a fire for 2025! Between the rain, high humidity and heat, circumstances kept us inside. The sharing of stories about our grandparents and how they influenced each attendee's life was enriching for all in attendance. It was an evening that allowed each of us to share some really personal stories from our hearts.  It was also a perfect example of how community works; how we grow in wisdom by remembering the blessings of our lives and hearing others stories. We only have two more offerings of this circle for 2025, September 18, and October 16. We do hope to see some new faces with loving hearts at one or both of those gathering dates. 
     As August rounds out, keep an eye open for the Fall decorations to add a bit of excitement for the cooler temps,  abundant Fall festivals and the clouds of dust from the huge machines harvesting the crops. It certainly creates a space for each of us to examine what we are harvesting from our Spring plantings. And, that may not just be from our gardens! I am glad to offer the first "Boo boo," as a prelude to Fall's "scary" holiday.       From my heart to yours, Vicky
