When I feel lonely or bored

When I feel lonely or bored I try and remember why the butterfly is a symbol of transformation.

Our journey teaches us we need to work on ourselves. To be effective at that we need to invest time and get comfortable with who we are. To figure out what we want and who we allow into our space.

A lot of that hard work means we need to be comfortable being by ourselves.

To make better choices going forward. To pick the right people and right places for us. To learn from others who have done the same.

Our bodies and minds are transforming after a lot of abuse.

One day at a time we heal and change.

Eventually, we emerge from our cocoons into something beautiful and free.

I absolutely love the way you worded this. You are right. We are all very much like butterflies. Everyday we stay sober, we heal, and we grow through every stage of the process.

Thank you for the read. Have a wonderful day. :butterfly:

You write so eloquently as your reaching out from your kind heart to help others understand this disease in our own ways. I tried to do the same thing and I commend you God bless you sir Lauren Marston
