The page has turned and August is behind us for another year. Soon, here in New Jersey, the seasons will begin to change, leaves will change their colors and then drop to the ground. The rotation of the seasons has begun as summer gives way to autumn.
I can’t help but reflect on the changing seasons in my life. Much like the color of the leaves, my life is about to transition from a solid uniform state in to one of bright and dazzling brilliance.A child will soon be upon us enlightening our lives in ways we can not begin to imagine.
Some people see the Autumn as just a precursor for the inevitable cold and bleakness of Winter.And this is true that the frenzied excitement of summer gives way to the golden brilliance of autumn, to be followed by a stark and barren winter.
When our lives have been compared to the seasons, it’s important to realize that while some places endure a cold and harsh winter, other places are enjoying a lively and thriving summer at the exact same time.
Embrace the change because there is nothing you can do to prevent it.
In many ways, the seasons of my life are transitioning from Autumn to Winter. Yet, at the exact same time, it will be transforming from Winter to Spring(a new baby is coming). And life experiences abound everywhere. Embrace the change because there is nothing you can do to prevent it.
How are the seasons of your life changing? And are you going to enjoy the change or will you cling to a fleeting summer while dreading the winter?
