(deciduous) tree leaves change color in the fall because they are tiny little factories being shutdown and scraped for parts. the tree has made an evolutionary bet that the amount of energy required to maintain its food factories (leaves) through the (freezing, increasingly dark) winter is just not worth the investment--better to shut it down and hibernate instead.
but before a tree can shed its leaves, it needs to break down and reabsorb that valuable valuable chlorophyll, to reuse in the spring. this removes the green pigmentation, allowing the yellow/orange pigments (carotenoids) that are usually hidden to shine through!
so next time you see a majestic sight like this:
please know these trees are cannibalizing their own extremities ♥
Stop procrastinating getting your dream life! Stop waiting for the "perfect moment" to decide on what you want. Stop putting off the decision for a "better day/time" when you know that the only time is now. Better yet, stop pretending that you don't know what you want. It might feel like you don't know, but that isn't the truth. Deep down, you know what lights you up, what puts happy butterflies in your stomach, what makes you want to jump and dance and sing. And you can make those things a reality, right now, as soon as you decide. So do it. Go within and find the answer, right now. It's there. It might be underneath a pile of desires you don't actually want, or desires that you think you should have because someone told you that you should have them, but don't actually want. And yes, it might take a bit of digging, sorting, and holding-up-to-the-light to find the truth. But no amount of effort needed is any reason to continue putting off manifesting your dream life.
You don't have to be afraid. You don't have to feel guilty. You don't have to shame yourself for taking so long. All you need to do is go within and figure out what you want, now. You've been given a brilliant, beautiful gift by finding the law, and there is nothing to be afraid of. Go!
