I never really liked halloween. It’s only recently that this thought surfaced because I didn’t consider it one way or another before, but now I know. I’ve nothing against seeing the wonderful, creative costumes passing by this time of the year, but I never really liked halloween. The day after posting this, I saw fun, creative costumes everywhere. And the feeling is happy. Maybe there’s a change of mind here. Change, it’s always in the air. There are signs all around indicating who’s inspired by this day, and who’s not. For some children costume planning begins weeks before halloween. Others will grab any kind of cloth a few minutes before it’s time to leave, throw it over their shoulders, and claim to be superman. Then there are the houses, some are nicely decked out in the best of halloween decorations weeks before the day. Others have a pumpkin placed on the steps the day of, and still others, nada. And it can change in a heartbeat. Those who once were the big planners lose interest, and the suddenly superman warms up to the day and begins winning prizes for the best costume.
And so it is.
Enjoy, or not.
