October Autumn Leaves, Wexford, PA
Change.
When the fear of change
challenges your thoughts
and stifles your actions,
look to the leaves of Autumn.
Marvel in their bold beauty,
and allow them to ignite your bravery.
Dare to embrace something new.
Confront your experience differently.
Welcome the transformation.
Cheers & Hugs,
Jodi

Make the leap

I love this picture, fall colors are what we are. We are Autumn’s Peak Farm, named for our beautiful dog.
I read this poem and thought of you as you move forward towards a new career.
I love you, Reeni

Perfectly lovely poem! I realize change is a challenge for some people, but I relish change and love to “embrace something new” as often as I can. And the change of seasons is always welcome from my perspective. Have a beautiful day!

Your poem really worthy advice. One of my favorites, in my top 3. I was mesmorizing over how pretty your oak leaves compared to ours at the moment. Ours currently, are all paper bag colored, not full of the orange, rust, yellows. But we are not known for the seasonal changes your side of the is known for. Then after minutes of admiring the photo I looked to what you wrote, really put into a perspective that is as clear as the Autumn Air. Beautiful Jodie, so nice to be touched by you. I’m thankful for having you.
