"Life is like the changing seasons..." Jim Rohn
Do you find yourself in a season of Winter, right now in your life? Maybe you have lost your job, have a loved one who is very ill, or have even lost a loved one recently. Maybe it is something less serious, maybe you have been working hard on your 2014 resolutions/goals and the results are...well...just not showing up. Are you working hard, eating right and the scale is not moving? Right now my winter season is just basic illness/viruses/tummy bugs that I cannot seem to get out of my home!
First my son, then my husband and daughter, now my other son.
It will not end....or will it?

Hold Strong! Maybe you are in one of your winter seasons right now. We ALL go through this. Think back through your life. I'm sure you can quickly pick out those winter seasons you have endured, right? The ones that stand out to me are of course the loss of my son, Tyler and soon after my sweet & loving Grandma. Our time of infertility and the trials & tribulations that come with that. There were rough patches along the way in my marriage. Trying times that seemed would never end with my kids. Even that struggle of trying to lose the baby weight after having the kids.
Can you relate?
The Winter season is where we learn how to survive. How to handle the tough, cold, long winter nights. Hang in there though, because what always follows winter?
SPRING!
Oh sweet spring.
It is refreshing. We start to see the buds on the trees & the tulips begin to pop up out of the ground. We see hope.
We see things can get better.
We see our hard work paying off. Opportunities show themselves to us and we begin to see them. Yes after winter comes spring, and so it will come to you as well.
In this season of Winter, stay strong, value all of the things you can in your life. Look for the good. Find something that you can hold on to. Treasure those special moments in your day to day life.
See, because as you do these things, you are not only helping yourself survive your winter season, but you are also planting some fabulous seeds along the way.

So keep going, keep striving, keep doing what you know you should even if you are not seeing the results quite yet.
Spring is coming...history show's it's true.
