Mother nature & life

Whoa!!! It is some kind of cold outside. Cold weather seems to be sweeping the country. If you've been keeping up with the news, you're familiar with how cold it is getting down south. Let me tell ya, as one who resides in the south, I can confirm, that yes indeed, it's cold.

Mother nature is interesting. I feel she and the big man upstairs work in conjunction with each other. I say this because of the different events which have, over the course of this crazy cold weather, happened in the past few weeks.

The cold weather shifted and a loved one whose health was bad took a turn for the worst. A good friend of mine received some pretty horrific news about a family member who had a major accident. Both of these events took place right as the temperature started dropping, almost as if it was saying,   "some bad stuff is brewing. Be prepared."

Though these things seem to be pretty grim, there is actually a glimmer of hope. For example, my grandmother pasted away a year ago. I remember the weather did not feel to pleasant. It actually mirrored what my grandmother was going through. The weather couldnt make up its mind if it's going to be hot or cold or mild. It was just going up and down and not happy. Then, one day it just stopped, it had finally decided to be calm, and that is when my grand mother pasted away. The big man upstairs explained  to mother nature that it was time, and she complied. After she pasted, mother nature gave us two weeks worth of beautiful, calm, peaceful weather. My grandmother was suffering for awhile and finally she was able to be at peace. Just like the weather.

It is cold and a little sad right now, but I guarantee , it's not going to be like this forever. You must experience hard and unpleasant times to appreciate the times that are exceptionally good. It's our circle of life.

On these days that seem to be bleak, just remember, it won't be like this forever. This to shall pass...
