Season for Change

I always get excited at the beginning of a new Big Picture Scrapbooking workshop and my "Giving Well 2008" class is the one that I really can't wait for.  It is so fast-paced with projects every other day and ideas flying around the message board and gallery.  The energy is high and I just love being a part of it.That, coupled with the change of season when the air is crisper and the colors so vibrant, means I love fall - especially here in Utah with the gorgeous change of seasons that we have tucked here along these mountains.  We truly live in a beautiful place.

I'm always fascinated by the variation in the changes that happen on the trees.  We planted three maple trees this year.  They are the same age, were planted at the same time and in the general same area of the yard.  But two of the trees started turning color about a month ago while one tree is just barely making its change.It makes me wonder.  This seems so typical of us as humans - some of us are ready to make the quick change and we can't wait to turn a new color.  Others take things more slowly and turn when they are good and ready.I think I fall into the second category.  I'm a watcher.  I like to assess the situation before diving in.  It can be both positive and negative - I am good at thinking things through and making wise choices but at the same time, I think my hesitation keeps me from embracing life like I could if I were more adventurous.Jason is a leaper - he loves life and is ready to grab hold with both arms.  I have learned a lot from him about this and I think it has helped me to become more comfortable with spontaneity as life goes on.  I want to be balanced - a good thinker and watcher but also able to enjoy the moment.  To me, that's perfection.Now, in the spirit of giving, Kristi has won our two products for our Giving Well class!  Congrats, Kristi and just email me (kolette@kolettehall.com) with your address and I'll send out those items to you.
