Times and Seasons (ePub)

In her fourth collection of poems, Uboho turns her attention to the Times and Seasons of our existence - the inescapable transitions between our experiences.
Sometimes people will step into a scene of your life and think they know the whole story, but the scene is not the entire story. The present scene is nothing but a phase you pass through. Don't stop the story just because you don't like the scene. It may be just a chapter of your book. It is not your destination.
While grappling with the desire to find meaning in life's journey, we find the truth in the book of Ecclesiastes: "To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven."

God has enacted certain eternal principles regarding time. In congruence with nature, we all experience the four seasons of Summer, winter, autumn, and spring. In this book however, the times are represented as waiting, wilderness, waring and winning seasons.
Times and Seasons is written to remind you that your dreams, praise, hope, faith, and love can carry you through every phase, every season of your life. You hurt and you heal, you build and release, and it's all part of the same process: it's life. Whether you are in a season of stagnation or expansion, each season is a signal that you're not stuck. And even though you'll lose some things, like the trees lose their leaves in fall; you're strong enough to keep going long after you think you can't. Our individual paths are unique and when you understand time and season, you will envy no one.
If you want to know how your present season is evolving, or why the last one had to end, or when the next one is coming - read these poems. Let them ground you in the truth that every single shifting season brings with it new life, another chance and an experience you are here in the world for.
