Hope in a Pumpkin Spice Latte
I have to laugh when I see the hype for a cup of coffee. For the Pumpkin Spice Latte - it's all seriousness. I know it's appearance is more than just a new flavor - especially this year. We love traditions - they bring order and sense to our lives and make things seem right and good. This year has been anything but normal and order has seemed to be on the fritz.
Melancholy - it's a thing
Many of us are feeling it these days - a sadness, a grieving and looking for a way to be joyful again. For some this may be depression - when it lasts long, is intense and you can't climb out of it - this needs professional attention. For others it's grief and feeling the loss of our former lives. We were hit with something we had no way to prepare for and have learned along the way what it means to be hanging on for dear life - every minute of every day.
