Chatterbox: In This Month's Issue

Today, I realized something. The leaves, they're green, right? Everyone expects them to be green in the summer and spring...but then, they change in the fall. And everyone gets used to the colors...orange, yellow, brown, red. In the winter, they're suddenly gone. They're gone for a while, everyone forgets about them. And then spring comes, and suddenly they're everywhere. Green once again. It got me thinking. Do we have to choose who we are right now? And if we do, does that ever change? Is everyone going to get used to our personality, and if we try to change, it won't work? Do we have to choose who we're going to be for the rest of our lives right now? I think that it's OK to be like the leaves. Changing now and then. What about having a mix of talents and personalities? It's like the world has different groups. What if you start a new group? You don't have to try to fit in. Real friends and people will like you for you, not for a fake identity.
