Losses aren’t easy. No matter how quickly or how soon they may occur, the pain is just as significant. Recently I’ve experienced a major loss and I never would have thought I had this much strength as a woman if this wouldn’t have occurred. I remember as a little girl I always feared every insect known to mankind even butterflies. Fast forward to my adult years experiencing this most recent loss I’ve been around a significant amount of butterflies. Rather than fearing them as an adult I now understand the significance and can somewhat begin to find peace amongst this most traumatic event. In religion butterflies symbolize resurrection. When I think of the anatomy of what a butterfly must go through before it is fully a butterfly it starts off first as a caterpillar. The caterpillar stage isn’t the most attractive however, it is the renewal process that occurs for the rebirth of the butterfly to form. Tuning into my more spiritual and emotional self I like to think of my most recent old self as a caterpillar. Experiencing this life test I am now becoming and evolving into a better version of myself. I am going through a powerful transformation that may not make sense right now but by tapping into my more intuitive self it will begin to make sense later. I’ve felt butterflies physically in my body. But I look forward to becoming what it is I have felt and that is a renewal of life; a beautiful butterfly 🦋
