Spring

In the Northern regions the seasons are a cycle of death to life to death to life. Endless loops bring darkness then hope then darkness then hope. Spring, in its warmth, flowering and greening, is that hope. The message is to be patient for the renewal of life.

In tropical regions, the seasons collapse. Life and death move in tandem, always hope, always loss. The message is to live, to live to outrace death.

This is nature preaching its evolutionary tale.
