The two are seated on a swing, hanging on heavy ropes suspended from large unseen branches in a thick forest bathed with glowing primordial light. Her gown, diaphanous and white, more than slightly reveals her perfect sensual form. His arms hold tightly to the ropes, which supports them. Springtime is arguably the single greatest image of young romantic love ever conceived, poignantly touching the hearts of millions over the last 125 years. Pierre August Cot painted Springtime in 1873. Soon thereafter it was exhibited at the Paris Salon where it created a sensation. In the decades that followed it became a virtual icon of 19th Century sensibilities and taste, with fame so widespread that most westerners still recognize the image, if not the artist. Reproduced millions of times, the odyssey of this masterpiece is one of the fascinating and mysterious stories of the art world.

Imagine craving absolutely nothing from the world. Imagine cutting the invisible strings that so painfully bind us: what would that be like? Imagine the freedoms that come from the ability to enjoy things without having to acquire them, own them, possess them. Try to envision a relationship based on acceptance and genuine care rather than expectation. Imagine feeling completely satisfied and content with your life just as it is. Who wouldn't want this? This is the enjoyment of non-attachment.
G. K. Chesterton quote about fear from What's Wrong with the World: “Now most modern freedom is at root fear. It is not so much that we are too bold to endure rules; it is rather that we are too timid to endure responsibilities.”

Sometimes its so painfully difficult to not dwell on past choices or mistakes. Maybe I'm the only one, but I seem to have a constant reel of film spinning away in my head of past conversations and scenarios and the pause button is nowhere to be found. My failures and weaknesses seem to be on neon-lettered billboards as constant reminders. Some days I desperately want to shut it off as I over- analyze and jumble my mind with if-only's and what-if's. I'm trying to view life like a story, though. There are chapters with themes that link together- and it's always being written. As a writer, this is comforting because it reminds me that my story is constantly changing, evolving, and growing, and it's never too late to keep writing it. At the same time, though, I want to embrace every part of it, instead of trying to erase the complicated and confusing chapters. A new day. A fresh perspective. A changed outlook. I'm beginning to find serenity in the fact that God's mercies are new every morning. His love doesn't keep score or keep track of wrongs and His grace never runs out or dries up. His love is unchanging and it allows me room to make mistakes and become the woman He has willed me to be. Despite the past, I can have hope in the future and look expectantly towards the next chapter of the story, because it's not finished. Thriving amid adversity: Resilience. During dark seasons, don't stop writing your story. There is something so powerful about the ability to not just survive challenging circumstances, but to thrive through them. You do not have to be strong to be resilient; I think resilience is admitting that you are weak and exhausted, but choosing to keep going anyway; reminding yourself that today you can change your story and you can hold on for another sunrise of hope.
