This too shall pass.

Iced latte season, I hope you never end...

Of course, it will end. Days will become shorter and cooler and summer will be nothing but a memory. Every time we leave the house, we will go through the ritual of lacing boots, zipping parkas, struggling to slip our coat sleeves over bulky gloves. We will bury our faces in thick scarves as the frigid winds relentlessly blow snow and ice around us. We will ask ourselves if we have made the right choices in life, if we can really survive another winter.

So too shall the winter pass. The cold and dark will dwindle, awakening into spring. Life will begin to renew and blossom into something changed yet beautiful.

If you are in a dark place, stay strong. Like the seasons, life is always changing. Winter turns to spring and spring to summer. Winter may come back, but it will never be permanent. It will always lead to something new and beautiful.
