Reflection

"There is no season when such pleasant and sunny spots may be lighted on, and produce so pleasant an effect on the feelings, as now in October." ~Nathaniel Hawthorne

Prayer

God of all seasons,

As we step a few days into this month of October, remind us of the beauty of this time of year.  Fall festivals and country fairs, harvesting of crops, hot apple cider, and of course the celebration of Halloween at the end of the month. So many wonderful and pleasant experiences.  As joy fills our minds in thinking of these upcoming events, help us to carry that joy with us throughout our workday, sharing it with our patients and co-workers. In anticipation of sharing such joy, we pray. Amen.

Call to Action

What is my favorite part of October, and why?  Share this with a friend, a patient or a co-worker, and then ask for their response also.
