I\u2019ve been feeling \u201cblah\u201d lately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Extra tired physically and mentally but not depressed, I don\u2019t think. Feeling like I\u2019m doing too much and not enough, at the same time. It\u2019s so frustrating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sometimes I wonder if maybe I\u2019ve been so used to living in the chaos of trauma (The last 20 years have been a party of the worst kind. It\u2019s feels insane to even write that down. 20 years!) that I don\u2019t even know what it\u2019s like to exist with less stress and trauma.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got up this morning feeling much the same and I looked out my bathroom window and muttered to myself, \u201cSeasons Change. I won\u2019t feel like this forever.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s something my mom told me years ago when I was complaining to her about how hard life as a young mom felt. She said, \u201cEven when it feels like the longest, darkest, never ending winter – know that spring\u2019s coming. And if you get stuck in the rainiest, most miserable springtime, know that warm summer days are coming. And if you feel stuck in the driest, drought of summer know that cool autumn days are coming next.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There have been times when I\u2019ve felt trapped in the darkest winter season I could imagine; and it seemed unending but I trusted and held onto the hope that my Spring was coming and things in my life would come back to life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

No matter what season you feel you\u2019re in; know without a shadow of a doubt that Seasons Change. Try and find some beauty in the season you\u2019re in, even if it\u2019s appreciating the dark quiet of hibernation and rest before you rise out of the darkness into something new.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Genesis 8:22 TPT –

there will always be seasons

cold and heat,
summer and winter,
