I know it has been really hard for everyone in this new season. All at once we have to fight all of these different battles thrown at us from every angle, and it’s tiring, I know…
Sometimes the battle comes in a cool breeze, and sometimes it hits you directly in the face, really hard, yes… I know, it’s been really hard to breathe for a long time for some of us too. Now, here we are, in the midst of two deadly pandemics, (COVID-19 and COVID-1619) both of which it’s most severe symptom is, it takes your breath away; those of us who survive, here we stand in this new season, still breathing as much as we can.
Today with my breath, I want to remind US, that the realization of time and space rapidly changing around US, gets easier when we accept that Everything has a season and “Everything Must Change”. Seasons change, we adapt, and we thrive. It may not always feel good, and we may be left with scars from the season, but yet and still, we thrive. My hope is that this classic ballad, (originally by Benard Ighner and recorded by legends like Quincy Jones, Nina Simone, Chaka Kahn, and Barbra Streisand) will be easy listening, yet encouraging to our nation to adjust and adapt to this new season, and lets thrive together just like we all have to do in any of the other four seasons.
