Dead But Alive.

Life

always comes

after

death.

We live 

beyond

physical climates.

There are

seasons

in our soul and spirit

too.

Perfectionists and control-freaks,

especially those living in 

all-summer countries

should 

remember

in life,

there're also

autumn, winter

 and

 spring.

Before 

fresh leaves, 

fragrant blooms

and

the harvest of sweet fruits,

the crowning glory

 of trees

must first 

wither,

crinkle

and

shed.

While all seems 

dead,

new life

has

conceived

 beneath.

While the

gray and bleak

seem to reign,

a 

new beginning

is

regenerated -

it is

growing

little by little;

something 

new

is 

getting ready to be

 birthed.

*

There is an 

order

in life

and 

it has never

changed:

After 

Winter,

Spring 

will come,

then

Summer,

Autumn

and

Winter 

again.

*

Which climate 

are you in?

If you've

been in 

Summer,

don't be afraid 

Winter.

Rejoice

because

Spring

 will be next.

Before 

she arrives,

don't be afraid 

to look 

dead

because

no matter

what others

believe, think or say,

no matter

what you 

believe, think or say,

Truth 

has the 

final word 

-

there is really

new life

after

every death.

*

To live 

a greater life,

brave through 

the 

greater deaths.
