The seasons and cycles of nature serve as a reminder that growth, rejuvenation and new beginnings will continue to arrive, blossom and bloom. It reveals to us that despite challenges and hardships, we can use the change we experience to emerge renewed; sometimes in ways we may not anticipate.
There is transformation ahead; even during times of adversity. Things may not seem to make sense at first or look as if there’s much chance of improvement, but life enjoys many seasons too; there is abundance to come.
Even the smallest moment of progress can create opportunity and purpose. We mustn’t disregard what we perceive as too small to make a difference. Every step we take is letting us know that our happiness and growth will flourish again. We are bountiful; keep going.

My life has had so much change in (what feels like) literally every area over the last few months. Health. Employment. Housing. Relationships. It’s been a lot. So this is a beautiful reminder of the potential of all those things even when it feels overwhelming and chaotic at times.

This is exactly what I had hoped this poem would do as I too have been going through painful change in all areas of my life (I’m sending you good vibes) and it can be overwhelming. I recently got a reminder that even unexpected or difficult/unwanted changes can lead to new/better things (bounty) and so we should trust a little in what this season of our lives brings — thank you so much for sharing your experiences!

Exactly right — adversity can really refocus us on what’s important and teach us much about ourselves and how to see the good times in a new light. Thank you so much for your comment!

Excellent post here. In each moment we are changing into something far beyond we could ever imagine, when we open up to the moment and realize who we really are. We are evolving, growing, improving and becoming happier and happier by shedding the past and being present.
