Enjoy the season
By Ilya on 10/5/2026, 🌱 Seedling - Faith, Nature
Sometimes you are in a place that feels hard, it's easy to be weighed down. No matter what the issues are, it's easy to miss the blessings of that season in your life. Especially when we can look back and see a photo or a video or even our memories of a past time. Especially with memories, which are lossy, meaning we manipulate them subconsciously to be more positive or more negative then they were.
This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it. -- Psalm 118:24
