Image for BCOF members to put in their blogs "Prompt: On the first day of autumn."

On the first day of autumn in West Virginia we are still sweltering under summer time weather. It did rain today so that is a little closer to autumn weather but the temperature is still up there. I believe it is 85 outside right now or it was the last time I looked. My phone has a weather app on it that tells the time and temperature. It's pretty handy to have around, except that it did not warn me that it was suppose to rain today and I got caught in a quick shower. I had to do some printing. I go to the local library to do that. The weather is nice enough that I can go. Even if it was cold I would venture out though. I prefer heat but I don't mind the cold. My biggest problem with winter is that the trees look ugly. I love summer when everything looks alive. Autumn means everything is going dormant soon. I regret that. God is in charge though. I sincerely believe He knows what He is doing. Some people will say that is blind faith. My faith is based on extensive archaeological and historic research as well as a smattering of other sciences, which convince me that the Bible is accurate and Jesus Christ rose from the dead.


Blog City image small "Prompt: “In order to enjoy life, we should not enjoy it too much,” says Vladimir Nabokov in Speak Memory.
What do you think he means and do you agree with him?"

I think he is saying that we should not become fat and lazy. Some people want nothing but enjoyment out of life and that is unrealistic. One can enjoy life but into every life there has to come a few hard times and some good old fashioned work. I think the author is trying to say that we can enjoy life but that we should also expect to do some hard work. Some of us are so situated that we enjoy our work. If you have a job you love you are never really working. Yet even those jobs have their moments.
