The Eternal Round

Life is difficult, and complicated and beyond anyone’s total control, and the humility to know that will enable you to survive its vicissitudes.  (J.K. Rowling)

The weather, she changes, yet again, and always.  Yesterday’s golden light may be replaced today by gales and rain, and white-capped tossed water.

If we really pay attention, we would learn early and repetitively that we really can’t count on much.  Unless, of course, these changes — this eternal Change — carries its own kind of security.

Life will change.  Light will yield to dark, sun to rain, good to bad, fortune to misfortune . . .

And . . .

Dark to light, rain to sun, bad to good, misfortune to fortune.

The eternal Round.  Weather teaches one things.
