What We Can Learn
From the Changing Seasons
Everyone gets tired, eventually. We get tired from the demands
of life. We get tired of the things in our closets. We get tired of eating the
same foods. We get tired of the winter cold or the summer heat or the spring
rain. We crave change, a fresh start, a new dress, or a new season. We desire
to wake up refreshed with a newfound excitement for the days ahead.
It is not always easy to know how or when to change. Sometimes
change happens to us whether we want it to or not. But sometimes we have the
choice to make a change. We have the ability to refresh our souls and wake our
tired eyes. Just as the trees shed their leaves, just as the snow creates a white
blanket of purity, just as the flowers bloom into an array of new color, so too
can we change our hearts and minds allowing us to find a new perspective, a new
energy, and a new peace. Every few months, Mother Nature ever so gently gives
us a cue for finding this peace.
Right now while the leaves are falling, allow your hearts to
shed their anxieties. Let them fall to the ground and get blown away by the
wind. Lighten the load which weighs down on your soul. Refresh your mind with
this change of season. Then open your tired eyes and see clearly how exciting
your life can be.
