Among the Blossoms: A Season of Soft Change

Therapeutically, these seasonal shifts can offer helpful metaphors. Change often begins quietly. A season can seem long and still, but underneath, transformation is happening. Life rarely moves in straight lines. Growth can take time. And often, the process looks like letting go. Not everything needs to be rushed or fixed. We may wish to hold onto what feels good, and we may be afraid of it slipping away, but when we accept that everything changes — the good, the hard, all of it — we can learn to let things be. Beauty becomes more precious because we know it won’t stay forever. And pain becomes more bearable because we know it won’t stay either.
