The Color Changing Leaves

 As I thoroughly observed the pure forest, I could not help but notice the change in color of the leaves since the last time I had visited. The delicate leaves were drenched in orange and yellow tones of color and I immediately felt a connection with the colored leaves. During the fall, green leaves slowly transform from a dull tone of green to brighter colors. Eventually, as the weather turns colder and colder, the wind will slowly blow them down. Just like the leaves that change constantly, I see myself changing colors through out the years. I am a green leaf at first; I am helpless, stressed, and know nothing about the cold reality. As I slowly attain knowledge and happiness through a long period of time, I prosper into a bright orange color. All the knowledge I gained will help me through the hard times and I would become a happy and bright leaf. Unfortunately, like the leaves during the fall, I will slowly fall down to the ground. My passion, my hard work, and happiness will once again fade away and make me fall. I will soon be reborn into a green leaf and start the long cycle once again.
