I think of life like looking at a tree. Every leaf has its own shape, size, and color. Watching the leaves change as the time goes by. They show you that its okay to change. They show that even when they all fall and wilt away they will all come back. So be that leaf that goes away and comes back new. In the end taht leafe is you.
