We have green everywhere in the summer,
Fallen leaves mess our roads and backyards in the fall
Depression is common in the winter
Excitement with new things in the spring.
Mother Nature’s rules rarely complicate things. When we sow corn properly, we reap corn. The transferred river gives us more flood. Changing our skin color or nose can cause more harm than good — create self-doubt.
They are many things we can enjoy and choose not to change. Why? Because they are nature — height, length of our fingers, hairline, race/color, or gender.
Gratefulness is the first step in honoring ourselves and mother nature’s rules.
