nature, naturally

I came across a blog-type post that referenced an awe for Summer, when, and I paraphrase, life is peaking, at its fullest. Got me thinking...this belief of peak life experience. Nature is certainly in full bloom during Summer. I reckon a case could be made that this is life to the fullest. Then, I remember a comment I once read..."even dead people communicate; if nothing else, that they are dead". That got me thinking about when life is at the peak experience. Is it only during summer, when in full bloom? How about in early Spring, when the worn and grey of winter is shedding and new vegetation erupts? How about Fall, when in preparation for dormancy? What about Winter, what with all the promise of the coming spring? Life it at the peak experience at any moment. Life is not only about external flourishes. Life is about cycles, each feeding the next, the old bringing in the new, transitioning through any time.
