Encrypted Seasons

A year is measured as an image of
life for a man or woman upon 
this earth.

Spring, which brings new life to the
world, is the symbol of baptism.
The cleansing of the souls of men and
women as it renews the soul at their 
moment of entrance into life.

Summer with its blazing heat and its
ever shinning light are also reminders
of the faithful light of another world
and the powerful love of God and the
symbol of infinity.

Autumn, the Season of harvest and
generations of old, and is the symbol
of the last judgment, that great day
on which we will reap what we have
sown.

Finally, Winter the shadow of death
that awaits the resurgence of mankind
and the renewal of life and this earth.

Through the ever changing Seasons, 
we gain knowledge of the process of
life as we walk this earth filled with symbols
and signs while under a road mapped sky
teeming with ideals.
