GROWING MEANS CHANGING by Becky Hemsley


"GROWING MEANS CHANGING"
by Becky Hemsley 2023

Sometimes people tell us
“you’ve changed”.
And I believe the best response to that is
“I hope so.”
Because we are supposed to learn and experience things in life, and they
are supposed to help us grow. And growing means changing.
No-one tells a tree ‘you’ve changed’
when its leaves start turning orange or its blossoms start to grow.
They take photographs of it.
They write poetry about it.
They paint pictures of it.
They celebrate its growth, and they document its changes.
Yes, when a tree changes, people do not question it.
They see its beauty
and they turn it into art.
