Changing Seasons

The View - May 05, 2023

How do you meet different seasons in your life? As winter approaches, there is a palpable change in the air. Winter clothing is brought out of the spare cupboard, and winter duvets are placed on the beds in the house. Winter in Australia is a unique experience that offers a blend of natural beauty, cultural diversity, and exciting outdoor activities. Unlike the harsh, snowy winters of some other parts of the world, Australian winters are mild and pleasant, making it the perfect time to explore the great outdoors.

One of the best things about Australian winters is the abundance of wildlife that can be seen during this season. From the majestic whales and playful dolphins along the coastline to the fascinating changes in the forests and parks, there are ample opportunities to encounter Australia's diverse flora and fauna. The lush greenery that comes with winter is a sight to behold, and the various national parks in the country are perfect for nature lovers and wildlife enthusiasts.

Challenges in life can be very much like seasons. When change comes, do we adapt and find the beauty in that moment of change? Some people stand unprepared in their shorts and say, "Winter is cold. I prefer summer," while others have a snowboard under their arms. Perhaps the challenge when changes come is to always see the beauty in that moment, after all, everything has a season.

"For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven." Ephesians 3:1
