Encouraging Words

Hello Parker Co. 4-H,

My name is Emily Meals, and I am currently serving as one of your Parker County 4-H
ambassadors. I have a few things already planned for this upcoming year, but I want to do
something special. Each month I am planning on completing a series, “Encouraging Words.”
Being a senior in high school, just like many of you, I am reaching the step into the “real
world.” So take my words of advice with you through life, and let's make this world a better
place.

Since it is Fall, we are soon to see the leaves change their colors. The word of focus this
month is change. Change in life may seem scary, but remember that some change is good. It
is important to never get too comfortable. Don’t be afraid of change whether this be
graduating from high school, focusing on a new project, or finding a new friend. You may
seem like you're losing something good, but you might be gaining something even better
ahead. So as you may see the leaves change colors, remember the focus of change.

Emily
Best Regards,

Emily Meals
