Seasons

Life is a continual rotation of seasons. Some seasons have similarities, but all are unique.

In each season, good and bad, it's easy to forget that another season is quickly approaching.

When things are good, we don't prepare for the bad.

When things are bad, we don't prepare for the good.

There are at least two lessons to learn here:

1. Don't get so caught up in the present that you forget about your future. We can get so caught up by the present and depending on where you're at, it can make you feel hopeless or sometimes make you feel too comfortable. Of course live in the moment, but don't be blind to the fact that things will be changing for you.

2. Prepare for the future. In times of abundance save and store up for future famines. This applies to finances but much more. Save up for future heartaches and disappointments. Save up for tragedies. Prepare also for abundance so you can handle it when a season of abundance arrives.

Never get too high and never get too low.
Things are probably never as bad as they seem and never as good as they seem.

That's not intended to be a negative approach, more said as caution to stay as level as possible through the seasons of life.
