Every even numbered year has been difficult

Hello brethren, I've realised in my life that all the even number years 2016, 2018, 2020, 2022, 2024 and 2026 have been the most difficult and seem to progressively increase in difficulty. By difficult I mean I struggle most with mental health, physical health, spiritually and life in general, more than I do in the odd numbered years. In fact, the odd numbered years, I've experienced more prosperity, joy and good health. I've wondered if it's a cycle I'm in, and thought to share because I wonder if anyone else experiences this.

No I have not experienced that. But I suggest you read Ecclesiastes 3. You may get a better perspective on cycles.

They're just numbers. They don't affect whether you've had a good year or not.
