This week I lived four seasons in one day.

Morning was winter.

I was doing something for the first time and my body went straight into stress mode. Migraine. Physically ill. Turns out my system took it more seriously than I realized.

Then it ended. And it went perfectly.

Suddenly it was spring.

Euphoria. “I did it!”

So I made plans based entirely on that high.

Then summer hit.

Israeli hot. Wrong place. Wrong fit. I kept thinking: why am I here?

All I wanted was to go home.

Eventually I did.

And autumn arrived.

Calm. Quiet. My house. My guy. My puppy.

Just like that I was okay again.

Four emotional seasons. One day.

My first thought was: what’s wrong with me?

Then I realized something.

None of those moods were wrong.

Winter nerves: this matters.
Spring euphoria: celebrate.
Summer discomfort: not your place.
Autumn calm: this is home.

Moods aren’t mistakes.

They’re information.

You’re allowed to move through four seasons in a single day.

Let them teach you.
