Seasons change

You know how many countries have the different seasons. In Singapore we pretty much have 2 seasons, the dry, hot and the rainy season. And I think we are starting to enter the monsoon season. Been raining for the past couple of nights. Days look gloomy too with the overcast skies. Even as I write this, the sky is dark and there are looming clouds just waiting to release their precipitation.

Some countries have the 4 different seasons: spring, summer, autumn and winter. An I feel as if we are entering into winter. Coming to the end of 2005. The end of the year is always a busy period for me. Too many things to do and too little time. Feeling a little overwhelmed and suffocated at the moment. Just waiting for this season to pass. Spring is around the corner and I'm looking forward to it.

There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under heaven:

a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain,
a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace. (Ecclesiastes 3)
