| Reflection in red London, ON October 2023 This photo originally shared on Instagram |
This is all strictly temporary, of course, as within days the leaves will shrivel to brown, and then nothing. Not long after, the snows will paint the bare branches another shade entirely.
It’s an easy thing to ignore, what with schedules and deadlines and life and stuff. Who, after all, has the time to stare at brightly coloured leaves in the throes of autumn?
With each passing day, I realize ever more clearly that we must all make the time. Because each of us has a duty to remember those whose sacrifice made it possible for us to take in the fields of red.
Or whatever other scenes our unchecked freedoms allow us to enjoy on any particular day.
We remember because they ensured we can.
