To become a butterfly, you must first be willing to no longer be a caterpillar, crawling on the ground looking at life from the lowest point of view. The same principle applies to a time in our lives when we know there is something more and we know we are not being who we were born to be. You sense that underneath the surface, something is not the way it should be. You must be willing to go through the metamorphosis in your life to finally bring yourself out of the cocoon, so that you may spread your wings and soar. If you find yourself in caterpillar mode, give yourself permission to go to the next level. Head for the cocoon.
When you are in the cocoon, you are licking your wounds, healing up on the inside, reassessing life and withdrawing from the familiar. You become a fortifier of your own self and are no longer looking outward for your help, guidance and strength. You are going inward and feeding off of what has already been deep down on the inside of you all along. At first you may not feel like yourself; this is yourself, you are just shedding off what was not authentic to you. You are dropping baggage, forgiving yourself, forgiving others, stripping away your excuses, calibrating what you have learned so far, creating a map, seeing a higher vision, feeling the presence of God, on some days not feeling anything at all. On some days you may even feel on the brink, but this is all necessary to become the woman you know yourself to be. Slowly you feel an awakening on the inside of you. Although you are still a priority your new desire is to go out into the world and see what good you can do there. When the time is right, you will know it in your heart. You will have truly awakened. You will slowly come out of your cocoon and you will know you can fly!
You will have become as a butterfly, out of the cocoon for evermore. Your new colors will sparkle against the sun. You will view life from a much higher plane. Life will no longer be a struggle. You are now light and free. You see your own beauty inside and out. Ease is your new way of life. You have an eagle's eye viewpoint of life. You are creating and pollinating your closely held dreams and ideals and you are flying to places you merely thought about years ago. You have found the courage to "come forth" and to be the woman you always knew yourself to be. You are now genuine, original, authentic. You are priceless because there is only one of you in the whole world.
Once you have undergone this transformation you will wonder why you crawled around in life so long when it was just as easy to fly. All of your dreams will come true. You will put forth whatever effort and action that is necesary to achieve them. Once you spread your wings, nothing in life will be impossible for you to do.
