"Adding wings to caterpillars does not create butterflies, it creates awkward and dysfunctional caterpillars. Butterflies are created through transformation." --Stephanie Marshall
Into the Chrysalis
"Chrysalises both inspire and baffle me. The thought that a caterpillar can crawl into a sac made of its own body and dissolve its form and come out as a butterfly is a cliched image of transformation, but holy crap. Stop for a moment and really think about that. Does the caterpillar know this is going to happen? If it does that shows some tremendous trust. If it doesn't, then that shows some incredible courage. It just hangs out there, isolating itself from the rest of the world and changing in ways it can never understand." Chris Corrigan shares more in this short passage.
BE THE CHANGE
Take a moment to consider whether you are resisting or inviting your own transformation in the chrysalis of this time. What response does the butterfly's process evoke in you?
