Life is like a Butterfly that Carries Wisdom Under its Wings

By Sara Jane

Butterfly

Ravenous Hunger

Hungry, curious, willing to learn

Experiencing, watching, listening, reading

Causing feelings, emotions, sensations

Shaping, moulding

Time to Sleep

Pain, whether physical or emotional

Meltdown

Oh, what a mess

Slowly coming to understand

Change is growth

Unlearning who you thought you were

Exploring and feeling into who you are

Breaking free from restrictions and constraints

Transformation

Stretch, breakout of your shell

Freeing your wings ready to fly

Spread them

Let them dry

And fly

Freedom

Feel the wind beneath your Wings

A whole new world to explore

Scent drawing me, Nectar

Life is a mysterious adventure

A journey of self discovery

To grow yourself

To know yourself

Let nature re-energies you, nurture you

Breathe in the fresh air

Feel the warmth of the sun

The kiss of the breeze

The caress of rain

You are a beautiful being of love and light

Believe and trust in yourself

Show the world the true you without apology

 

Our journey through life is reflected in nature, if we but let ourselves see.

The Butterfly is a beautiful example, as a caterpillar it munches through everything, devouring as it goes.

When we are young, we are curious, we are taught and take on so much of what we see and hear, shaping us.

But are we really the person that all of that has taught us to be or is the real us buried beneath the conditioning of our yearly years?

Time to unlearn, to unpick who we thought we were and it can get messy, just like the caterpillar that turns into a pupa before breaking free into a beautiful butterfly.

Once we start the unpicking process we can’t go back, we have already grown beyond where we were.

Keep going, set yourself free of those redundant learned behaviours and explore who you really are.

As we learn to fly, escaping the restraints put on us by others, our wings are supported by the wisdom gained from our experiences.

Life is a beautiful journey of ups and downs, and you are a beautiful being of light, even if you can’t see your own wings.

Namaste Sweet Soul
