If Planet Earth seems a little turbulent these days, you’re not alone.
The skies overhead have been rain-filled, tinged with violent thunder and lightning, whipped by raging winds.
All this has fed the watershed below. The waters are now higher than they’ve been in recent memory, and they make a heck of a lot of noise as they rush chaotically downstream toward destinations often unknown.
At least that’s how it seems as I stand along the banks of that now-dangerous river.
But I’m guessing if I stand here long enough, a number of things might happen.
The storms will gradually fade into the distance. The skies will slowly clear. The sun will emerge once more. The winds will ease off. The waters will slow down and drop, eventually receding to a gentle burble. The birds will resume singing their songs.
It’ll remind us that everything is cyclical, that no turbulence lasts forever, that brighter skies are always out there, somewhere.
We just have to be a little patient. We just have to be a little hopeful.
