Happy October! As I reflected on the past month, I did everything I could to talk about something different than what everyone else is talking about, except that CHANGE seems to be the only authentic musing. So whether or not it is trite, change is what is real for me this month. In almost every way my life has completely transformed. I live in a completely new place, my teaching schedule has changed, the weather has changed, even my hair is a bit redder than a bit ago.
