There is one thing we can count on: CHANGE. Time brings change. The climate and the weather change. When we purchase something, sometimes we get back a small amount of change. How much change can we spare? Images of change might refer to any of these, or others, such as autumn leaves, melting snow, coins, or a gradation of color.
