Emerge from the chrysalis,
come into the sunlight…
after all of the waiting,
now is the time to fly.
I hope you can find at least one area of your life where you can say, “now is the time. After all the waiting, now is the time.”
Of course there are many things in life for which we cannot control how long the waiting will take, but at the same time, it can still be worth it to identify where we can say “now is the time,” anyway. To say:
“When will I stop waiting on approval from others? To stop thinking I have to have it all figured out perfectly before again? Now is the time.”
Like a butterfly emerging from its chrysalis, let yourself begin to look for ways to come alive, beyond the waiting. And even if it’s subtle, know that it matters to come forth into the sunlight this way. This too, is transformation.
