comfort in cycles

i was at work the other day when i realized that everyone seems to find a sense of comfort in cycles...

it's like everyone at work is so comforted by the fact that they'll always get a 15 minute break every 2 hours or a 30 minute lunch

or

a girl with menstrual cycles... it's comforting to know that you're still young enough to have a cycle or that you're not fucked yet; you're not pregnant.

or

the cycle of seasons... maybe this cold winter will pass, maybe this long summer will pass, and maybe... spring will come again.

or

the cycle of the weekend coming and ending the endless weekdays

or

the cycle of relationships ending and starting

or

the cycle of life and death

or

the cycle of knowing everything and not knowing anything again

i seem to find solace in cycles myself. it's comforting to know that what comes around will go around... not necessarily in the same way, sometimes what returns is changed.
