The seasons on Earth are reflections of the seasons of life for each soul.

Childhood: Spring When a child is brought into the world, fresh, full of enthusiasm and growing fast. Keen to learn and to show what has been learnt.

Young adulthood: Summer The child has now grown to maturity, full of vigour and productiveness. Strength to lead and with the confidence to do so.

Middle Age: Autumn The person begins to slow down now, to look back and learn from past mistakes that were made in haste. Now he waits before acting and productiveness is in the past, now is the time for reflection and understanding.

Old Age: Winter This is the best season of all, it is the season of rest. The lessons are learnt, or should be if the person has been wise and the lessons learnt have been passed on wherever possible. it is time to shrivel like the leaves and wait for the great rebirth into the true life of love that awaits us all.

Another bit of philosophy I wrote in 1997
