Perhaps you are in an area where it also snows.  The reason I&#8217;m posting this while it is almost summer is to remind us that seasons do in fact change.  The cycles of the earth continue regardless if we are ready or not.  <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we move into the summer season in the Northern Hemisphere, I urge you to reflect back on winter.  Think about how far you&#8217;ve come, or even the things you setout to do in this new year and haven&#8217;t even made progress yet.  But also, consider how you are moving through the year and each season.  Are you moving with grace or resisting it every step of the way?  <\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As much as I love to believe time is an illusion, the truth is the earth is rotating creating the day and night cycles.  Are you making the most of each <a href=\"https:\/\/earthsky.org\/earth\/why-cant-we-feel-earths-spin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">mini-cycle (the day)<\/a> and the most of each season our solar system creates?<\/p><p><br><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connect <\/h2>\n<p><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Down below in the comments, write what you love about the seasons, or which season is your favorite and why!
