Just back here to visit family and friends. It’s great to be back also, because of the wonderful weather.

Holy Name Cathedral stands not only as a place of worship but also as a symbol of Chicago's history and architectural heritage. Its presence in the cityscape reflects the enduring spiritual and cultural legacy of the Catholic community in Chicago.

In times of adversity, homes with love become sanctuaries of support and encouragement. They provide solace and a sense of hope when facing life's challenges. Love acts as a balm for wounds, as a source of strength when confronted with difficulties, and as a reminder that we are never alone in our struggles.

So, let us remember that in a world of constant change, our ability to enjoy the moment is a precious gift, a testament to our capacity for joy, gratitude, and inner peace.

If we stop doing things adventurous and if we stop going out there, we stop living.

What a gorgeous day! We got a morning treat with snow while having breakfast. I love fall season! The colors and the snow that comes in sporadically.

I’m drawn out every day during the hike of the autumn season. This is the time when you don’t. want to miss out the splendor colors of nature and Tangley Oaks offer the beauty that everybody is looking for this season.

Everything has its moments, for the beauty around us keeps on changing. For me, my young days are gone, now every step I take is something to be savored and enjoyed. And Tangley Oaks has the beauty that enjoy every day.

Noticing the colors of leaves before they start turning gray. The morning sun illuminated the remaining beauty of its leaves before they start turning gray. I consider autumn the most beautiful season. I’m so blessed to be here in Lake Bluff where I can enjoy the changing colors daily and get closer to the elements of life.

One thing I learned recently is paying attention. Before I just go with the overall picture. I still am, but combining it would bring better results.

Every leaf speaks bliss to me. I wish I could spend more time outside trying to connect with each one.

It’s autumn again. Although the sky is grey, there is a symphony of colors around us.

It all begins with an idea.

Snow storm has set on the first day of winter and days before Christmas. Even in extreme conditions, there is often a unique and stark beauty to be found. Being alive in bitter cold encourages us to seek and appreciate the beauty that can exist in the most unlikely places.

Change can be a source of growth and opportunity, but it can also be challenging and unsettling. Yet, it's the very impermanence of life that makes it so precious. Change invites us to adapt, learn, and embrace new experiences. It encourages resilience, creativity, and a broader perspective.

The vibrant colors represent potential and growth. They remind us that even in difficult or stagnant periods, there is the potential for change and transformation. Life is a continuous process of growth and renewal.
