Happy New Year!
“For last year’s words belong to last year’s language
And next year’s words await another voice.
And to make an end is to make a beginning.”
~T.S. Eliot (b. September 26, 1888 – d. January 4, 1965)

Christmas

November
“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.”
Edith Sitwell (b. 7 September 1887 – d. 9 December 1964)
Halloween
“Halloween shadows played upon the walls of the houses. In the sky the Halloween moon raced in and out of the clouds. The Halloween wind was blowing, not a blasting of wind but a right-sized swelling, falling, and gushing of wind. It was a lovely and exciting night, exactly the kind of night Halloween should be.”
~ Eleanor Estes, American children’s author (b. May 9, 1906 – d. July 15, 1988)
Do what you feel in your heart…

Eleanor Roosevelt (b. October 11, 1884 – d. November 7, 1962)
