Like Clockwork

PHOTO ILLUSTRATION

Everything occurs in cycles. Not just days, as in 24 hours in a day, and not just years. Everything from fashion to nostalgia to politics is cyclical. All of these things complete a circle that repeats. It all becomes a pattern we can recognize. Fashions come back twenty years on. Political pendulums swing, only this pendulum doesn’t go back and forth, it goes around and around. It’s a cycle. Every spring, life begins anew. We grow to expect it, and soon realize how many other things also work in cycles. Oh here it comes again, like clockwork.
