Seasons

Seasons are a natural part of our finite world. It seems that seasons are in place as part of the rhythm of life. What would the alternative to a seasonal life be? Probably a pretty boring and static existence. Seasons allow new life. Seasons allow for purging, regeneration, cultivating and thriving. To get the good seasons, you have to endure the bad seasons. To have seasons of gain, sometimes you have to experience seasons of loss. It takes seasons of famine to appreciate seasons of bounty. It takes seasons of loss to appreciate what remains. It unfortunately takes hard times to make us stronger.

The key to remember is, life is full of seasons. If you are in a season of famine, know it will change. If you are in a season of bounty, stay humble knowing it will change.

Things are never as good as they seem and never as bad as they seem. Staying level as much as possible through cyclical seasons is the best tactic to combat the ups and downs of the seasons of life.
