Marriages in Motion: The Seasonal Dance of Love
Have you ever noticed how your relationship seems to shift and change, sometimes feeling warm and vibrant, other times distant and cold? Just as nature moves through distinct seasons, our marriages naturally cycle through periods of growth, abundance, change, and dormancy. This revolutionary framework explains why some couples thrive for decades while others wither despite favorable conditions. The seasonal metaphor reveals that marriages aren't static entities but dynamic relationships that require different approaches as they move through spring's renewal, summer's satisfaction, fall's uncertainty, and winter's coldness. Understanding these patterns helps us recognize that difficulties aren't necessarily signs of failure but natural transitions that all relationships experience. The question isn't whether your marriage will face changing seasons - it's how you'll navigate them together.
