Wherever you go, change is always present. The leaves grow, stick around for a time, but eventually fall and wither away. The world is turning and the seasons are changing with it. We are always changing as well. You will never be the same version of yourself as you are at this current moment. The thought of change is intimidating, but it is beautiful. An open door that leads towards a new version of you.
Change is an unstoppable force, one that marches on no matter what you have to say. The best thing you can do is allow it to take you along. Spring marches forward and brings life, love, and warmth from the sky. Winter comes along and takes the warmth you have known away, and all that was is dead and gone. After all that, you stand tall. You adjust to the changing temperatures and you keep moving forward.
The seasons in life seem to mirror our lives well. We stand strong and brave the weather, no matter the difficulty. Our lives will have ups, and they will have downs. Winter and Spring will both come, and through it all we will stand strong and emerge healthier and wiser than ever. In a time of such a great change, I remind you to stop and appreciate the moments you have. Through good and bad, you are here and it is beautiful.
