November offers a chance to pause. Nature itself is gathering. The trees draw their sap toward their roots, animals store food and prepare for rest. Similarly, we can begin to gather what has been scattered, refocus our attention, and bring our awareness inward. Gathering is not withdrawal. It is not about closing ourselves off or retreating from life.

We often live with the illusion of permanence. We like to believe that things will stay as they are, that people, places, and even our own feelings are fixed and enduring. And yet, if we look closely, all of existence is in a state of flux. Nothing lasts forever; everything is temporary.
