A season . . .

 

When people come into your life for a season, it is because your turn has come to share, grow or learn.   They may bring you an experience of peace or make you laugh.  They may teach you something you have never done.  They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy.  Believe it!  It is real!  But only for a season.  In the same way that leaves must fall from the trees, or the moon becomes full and then disappears, your seasonal relationships will end at the divinely appointed time.  When that time comes, there is nothing you can say or do to make it work.  There is no one you can blame.  You cannot fix it.  You cannot explain it.  The harder you clutch, the worse it will feel.  When the end of a season comes in a loving relationship, the only thing for you to do is let go.

For everything there is a season.
