The seasons mirror the cycle of life from "summary" of Stories from Tagore by Rabindranath Tagore

In the cycle of seasons lies the essence of life itself. Just as the earth undergoes its rhythmic changes from spring to summer, autumn to winter, so too do we experience the various stages of our existence. The freshness of spring symbolizes the innocence and purity of youth, when everything is new and full of promise. The warmth of summer represents the peak of our lives, when we bask in the glory of our achievements and revel in the abundance of our experiences. But then comes autumn, a time of transition and reflection, when we begin to reap what we have sown and prepare for the inevitable changes that lie ahead. The falling leaves remind us of the passing of time and the impermanence of all things. And finally, winter descends, with its cold and darkness, signaling the end of one cycle and the beginning of another. Just as the earth must go through its seasons in order to grow and thrive, so too must we embrace the changes and challenges that come with each stage of life. We must learn to let go of the past and welcome the future with open arms. And just as the earth eventually emerges from its winter slumber to bloom once again in the spring, so too can we find renewal and regeneration in the cycle of our own lives. In this way, the seasons serve as a mirror to our own existence, reflecting back to us the beauty, the struggles, and the ultimate transformation that come with the passage of time. By observing and understanding the rhythms of nature, we can gain insight into our own inner workings and find solace in the knowledge that, like the earth, we too are part of a larger, more profound cycle of life.
