sometimes people come into our lives that inspire us, motivate us, encourage us, and touch our hearts in some way as they help us see the true meaning of life; they could be a friend, they could be a stranger, but in their own way they make an impact on our lives, helping to change it and make it better
The other day when I was walking, I saw a beautiful butterfly flittering in the sky. I was struck by how beautiful yet graceful and fragile it appeared to be. Then the thought occurred to me that although we may see a butterfly as having fragile wings and being this delicate creature, the butterfly is also very very strong. For the butterfly had to have strength when it was a caterpillar to break through that cocoon and learn how to fly. Survivors are the same way. Yes, our hearts are fragile and delicate in some areas from the pain we went through. Yet at the same time, we have so much strength to us for breaking away from the life we once had and for shattering our silence as we create this new life for ourselves. We've moved on from that part of our lives and now we begin to embark on a new journey as we live a life free from abuse.
