Sometimes we are like falling leaves

 By Dinah Henry

-

A falling leaf is falling off a tree, but sometimes it doesn't know where it's going to land. On the ground? In the water? With more leaves? Or by itself? It is a falling leaf waiting to land. I keep thinking about what am I, and who am I. Sometimes we are like leaves because we don’t know where our journey is going to land in our life. We sometimes don’t know where that journey will take us. That is OK because sometimes our lives to us are questions that we need to find, to seek. Maybe we will find the answers, maybe we won’t, but whatever happens next, let the journey take you on a ride because sometimes you will never know what you will find.
