seasons change. they have to. they were designed to only last for a time. they were designed to cause certain, specific things to take place. each season has its own destiny, its own purpose. and in that, each season causes all the others to be that much more effective. each season, in its own way, brings life. abundant, beautiful life.
reasons change. they have to. they were desinged to only last for a time. they were designed to cause certain, specific things to take place. each reason has its own destiny, its own purpose. and in that, each reason causes all the others to be that much more effective. each reason, in its own way, brings life. abundant beautiful life.
reasons change. they need to. im learning that our reasons for doing what we do, have to change. they cannont forever stay the same. summer cannot last forever, and thankfully, neither can winter. they are appointed start and end times. it is the same with our reasons.
texas; at least in its current reason, cannot last forever. because my reasons for coming here, are changing. i came here to be closer to the family. to find closure and healing for my wounds. to say goodbye. to find a new path. to rediscover hidden dreams. to heal. to cry. to chip away at the walls that surround my heart.
is this season done? am i through with it all? no. there is still healing to come. there is still discoveries that must be made. but my reasons are changing.
the season is changing. i dont know how, or where that may lead…. but ive known it for some time.
spring is coming.
our reasons for doing what we do, for being who we are, cannot stay the same. we are designed to learn, to experience, to taste, touch, see, and hear new things. we were destined for change. we were destined for life.
and for those of us who may find ourselves attacking mountains in our lives with nothing but a coffee cup, our reasons are the most important things that we have.
our reasons were destined to change. destined to challenge us. destined to help us find our way.our reasons give us hope.
our reasons keep our dreams alive. our reasons are what allow us to get up every morning, and keep on keeping on.
our reasons give us courage. and isnt that what this life is all about? courage to try new things? to face our demons? to forgive ourselves for our pasts? and to accept the reality of our dreams?
courage. to find our dreams.
and hopefully …to live them.

life is constant movement. There are times when I would just like to freeze a day and relive it’s grandeur … but alas it passes.
But the seasons do revolve and return 🙂

While it appears you’re @ a crossroads, I leave you with this lyric (which I hope you can relate to and appreciate…considering you got me this CD from a Logos pick up many, many years ago…)
Freefall
weightless and terrified
on I go
crossing over
from living to so alive
and purified
I know weeping is death for tonight
but joy, joy comes in the morning
(yes, you may now go put that CD in and listen to it for the next couple of days/weeks. I’m uploading it into iTunes right now so I can continually rock out to it as I go about my day)
