Cycles.
We all have them.
Linearity is a hoax and not a very useful concept, I might add, if you’re trying to make sense of events, you’re life and surroundings.
The processes move ahead in circles or spirals rather than forward along a linear axis
Thus life circles along in different cycles between success and despair. over and over again.
I’ve hit rock bottom innumerable times - that’s the most visible part of the cycle, because it hurts. But also because the top of the circle is obscured by our expectation about a linear progress of accomplishment and happiness, as something that should and can be constant.
But then the pendulum swings again and you crash and burn.
This time the desolation was widespread, but the depth of the decline also indicates a higher pinnacle.
I still grovel in the ashes
But a new cycle, aeon, has started.
Like the Phoenix I will soon rise again, be reborn and grow new feathers – this time even more magnificent than my previous plumage.
