Cycles of Blessing and Curse

 I wanted to take the time tonight to talk about a concept I hold very dear. It helps me stay positive when times are rough and helps me stay grounded when times are great.

I believe good times and bad times in your life come in cycles (just as everything does). In my experience when something bad happens it generally shifts to neutrality then to something positive, then shifting again to neutrality and finally to strife.

I think about this most often at the two extremes. When times are rough I am able to think about this cycle and about how many times it has proven true in my life, and it helps me to wade the hardships to wait for the blessings to come. When times are good I am reminded by the cycle to plan ahead and be ready for what the universe is inevitably going to throw my way.

~Look for the cycles present in life~
