Every since I have realized that I am apart of the universe, I have become more aware of how. The seasons was a great place for me to start. Coming to terms with this has changed my life. I am more patient due to the fact of the cycles. This truth is my freedom. When problems arise and I feel like I need to be productive in the dead of winter, I find most of my productivity within. That is why they call it W/inter. We go withing and hybernate. Same goes for the time when things spring forward from that temporary dead state, as well as when things get summed up in the summer and almost ready for harvest. Once we have finished this dance we begin to relax and enjoy the fruits of our labor. Giving thanks to the things that have fallen from the tree of life in order for us to nourish upon.  It will also serve as a refuge from what society demands upon you to perform like some machine out of harmony with the natural order of things.  No wonder we create so many problems for ourselves.
