Time And Season!

'There's time for everything and a season for every activity under the heavens'.

This, according to the Holy Bible, has a list of different transitions of life which tell us the representations of each season and show the important matters in every stage of a man's life. Some are happy times, others sad, some are productive while others seem wasteful; some inspire peace and others bring pain but in summation, all of them are important for us to learn, grow, and evolve into better individuals.
Each experience reveals a loving divine purpose that we can always trust the nature by which God has made man. Considering that every new beginning requires an ending, each one also comes with a gift! Yes a gift, if we are open to receiving it. The cold moments of freezing due to lack of one challenge or the other, the heat moments of too much to look after and the airy moments of success, all clamp together to tell a man's life story. We must therefore learn to accept the process and go with the flow as there's always light at the very end of every tunnel. Mother Theresa once said:"yesterday is gone,tomorrow has not yet come;we have only today,let us begin".

She knew we are who we tomorrow as a product of our today, hence,the last part of her words. Over the past the past 12months and beyond,the acronym "SWOT analysis" which is a structured planning method used in evaluating the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats involved in a project or a business venture, should make us know what gives us an advantage over others, what makes us to be relatively disadvantaged when compared to others. We also know the areas of our lives that can be exploitted to its advantage and we can also identify and work perfectly on some major areas that look disappointing. Thus, the times and season of our lives will be maximized effectively.
We are the decision makers of our lives, we row the boat to where we want it to go whether front or backwards which is why healthy, productive and result-oriented decisions are key at this point of our lives. I will like to end on a movie I watched half a decade ago,"Akilla and the bee". I can never forget the words of the coach to the young girl which said: " Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. We ask ourselves, 'who am I to be brilliant,gorgeous,talented,fabulous...? Actually who are we not to be? We are born to make manifest the glory of God that's within us. And as we let our light shine, we unconciously give other people permission to do same!" Every time I look at this long quote, it makes new meanings to me the more....Learn,Unlearn and relearn...
There is always a season in TIME!
