Everyone Hail to the Pumpkin Song
Today's Illumination may be imagined as the light in a jack-o-lantern, it being the season of pumpkin everything and such. We have a small sampling of how people near me celebrate Halloween and lend a hand at the same time.
Now, I've never been much for haunted houses, but this zombie wedding might be an exception for me. Not only is it a display for the neighborhood (started as one for the grandkids), but this year people are taking the opportunity to collect donations of food and coats for a local shelter. Most of the other events on that page have similar requests, showing that people are aware of ways they can lend a hand to those in need.
The small comforts, the little things, the tiny gestures that most of us don't think about - these are the things that add to the light in the world. Don't give up, friends, and remember that every bit of light helps.
