Living in the seasons.
One of my coaches spoke to me about the idea that life works in seasons. Now sometimes these personal seasons line up with our actual seasons, but sometimes they can be totally off and last extremely long in comparison.
For instance, I had been in a longggg winter season from the end of 2021 to this spring 2023.
It was like I was living in the smoke, unsure how things were going to play out, but trusting that summer would come.
Just recently I began to feel the warmth on my skin again. Felt the pleasure and play in life. And at first I was extremely uncomfortable. I had just spent over 1.5 years in a dark winter, I became familiar and comfortable with the dark.
But I trusted in the seasons. I trusted that things would change. That what I longed for all those months would be fulfilled.
Perhaps you’re in a winter season. Perhaps you’re unsure where life’s leading you or why certain challenges and pain seem so permanent.
Know that one season can’t last forever and lean into what this one is teaching you. To trust. Surrender. Have faith.
Summer is coming 🫶🏼
