Cyclical Things ♻︎
The new year has me thinking about the various cycles of life. There are many ways in which life can be seen as occurring in cycles. For example, there's the lifecycle of birth, growth, reproduction, and death common to (all?) living things. This is happening all around us, including within us on a cellular level.
In addition to biological cycles, there are other cycles in the natural world, such as the those of the annual seasons, the water cycle, and the carbon cycle. These cycles play a crucial role in the balance of the Earth's ecosystems.
There are also social and cultural cycles that can be observed in human societies. For example, there are economic cycles, such as booms and busts, and political cycles, such as the rise and fall of governments.

The start of 2023 is not a new decade, but I think it's the start of a new cycle or age.
