Five-Minute Friday

Today, I am linking up over at The Gypsy Mama for Five-Minute Friday.  This is where we  just write and not worry if it’s just right or not.  Hope to see you there.

When Seasons Change


START


It seems like yesterday, I was a child getting ready for my first day of school.  I was so small that the bus driver had to get out of the bus to help me on.  I blinked and the season changed.
Now I was a young child, getting into a fight with the school bully, simply because I refused to fight.  She thought she would make me, whether I wanted to or not.  One black eye later and many tears, I blinked and the season changed.
I was in Junior High school, with all it's ups and downs and ins and outs.  I wanted friends so much, but the other kids did not seem to like me.  We moved a lot, and I was always the new kid.  I was just trying to belong.  They called me frog and laughed at me.  I blinked and the season changed.
High school brought more loneliness, tears and a few friends.  I learned, l lived, I loved, I blinked and it was gone.
My life has been that way, every season has brought a new moment, a new year, a new person to experience the joys and pains, the hurt and tears, the happiness and laughter.  I was married, I had children, life was good, life was heartbreaking.  I learned that Heavenly Father really does love me.  He really is there.  He really will answer prayers.  I also learned that sometimes the answer is "no".  I know now that when I blink again, the season will change.  So I can hold on.  I can endure, I can rejoice.  I can know that no matter what happens, good or bad, the season will change. 


Stop      


Now it is your turn.  What season are YOU in.
