One day when I finished work I decided to walk back home, the afternoon was cool and the weather was very favorable for walking, besides helping me to calm my mind that was wandering overwhelmed with thoughts of bills to pay and all the expenses that I still had to cover. As I set out to walk I concentrated on enjoying the scenery, I really wanted just for a moment in the midst of the problems, to stop and smell the flowers as they say over there. As I walked I came to the trees that have been planted in the avenue and other small bushes that have grown naturally without anyone having to arrange for their existence in that place.

I could see how the big and imposing saman trees stood next to the small isoras and how the palms swayed in their splendor on one side of the avenue where the houses are, everything is harmony in nature. In that beautiful landscape I had a first revelation "the big is not afraid to go with the small" because in the end each one has its purpose. As I walked along I could see how in some trees the spring is already showing off in their new branches, leaves and flowers, how the fruits are starting to come out, in my city there are many mango trees and even in the streets you can see the big trees covered with them.

On my walk my mind was assaulted by the thoughts that usually become these reflections, I wondered if in our life the seasons are usually like that in nature, that is to say to fulfill a cycle and come back with each new period. I discovered for example those who try to live in an eternal spring, to bloom without rest, to bear fruit and to be always young and robust, without thinking that everything has its moment and its time. Spring, blessed and beautiful, repeats itself in our lives every time we are able to move forward and accomplish a new step, every time we achieve an accomplishment in our lives and especially every time we enjoy the love of the people we have by our side.

In summer we enjoy the warmth of maturity that the years and experience give us, the high temperatures are joined with the pleasant aroma of change, you move forward and it shows, you are wiser and with much life ahead so you can move forward, the summer of our lives should serve us to begin to mature ideas, plans and purposes that we will be close to perform in the following seasons. Summer is ideal and propitious to discover our inner strength and resistance to obstacles, our strength and mettle develops in the heat of this season.

Autumn, how wonderful if we have made it to autumn in our lives, remembering that it is a season. There are those who speak of autumn as if it were exclusively about old age, when in fact autumn comes every time we shed our skin, every time we learn and grow. And most especially, we come to autumn when we let go of unnecessary burdens, when we understand that good or bad situations are fleeting and that we must learn from them at all times. We renew ourselves with autumn as trees change their foliage.

And winter comes at different times and in different ways for each of us, the days are shorter and we feel the cold breeze that invites us to stay in a warm and safe place. If you ask me, yes I have felt winter in my life, when I have experienced grief over a loss or when situations have pushed me to the extreme of my own existence. But winter is a season that allows us to get away from the outside noise, to listen in privacy to our own voice and especially to be born again to enjoy the goodness of life in springtime.

That is why and we always live in the seasons, maybe they are not as long as some people think and for me they are not presented in sequence, for me they are those moments when we learn, change and especially when we remember that we are alive.
