The season you’re in right now—of your life—is perfect.
Just like how winter is the perfect season for bundling up, going sledding, and drinking hot cocoa…
And how summer is the perfect season for swimsuits, beach, and getting your vitamin D on…
Where you are right now… is the perfect place to be. You only have to realize it.
Maybe you’re single, don’t have kids, and work a lot… you could dwell on this or you could see this as the perfect opportunity for spontaneous adventuring and solo tripping.
Maybe you’re in a serious relationship, have kids, and are a stay-at-home parent… you could dwell on this or you could see this as the perfect opportunity for deepening your family’s roots.
Maybe you’re in a “complicated” relationship, the person you’re seeing has a kid, and you have a part-time job… you could dwell on this or you could see this as being the perfect opportunity for introspection and identifying exactly what it is you want (and how you can get it) in life.
Learn to stop seeing the current season you’re in as “wrong/bad/invalid.”
And start asking yourself, “what is this current season I’m in the perfect opportunity for?”
Cursing the current season because you want to be in another is an excellent way to never be happy.
Maybe it’s time we stop trying to control seasons and start embracing the one we’re currently in.
