"Angel of Change of Life

A rollercoaster of emotions, you feel you’re going mad
And most of the time you simply feel totally and utterly sad
A feeling of complete separation from your very soul
Sure that you’ll never, ever again feel completely whole
But don’t despair, for what you feel is a natural part of life
A beautiful, glorious, brand new you is blossoming into life
The birthing pains you’re feeling are difficult to understand
But you’re not alone for friends and family are there to lend a hand
The time has come for you to nurture your body, soul and mind
And soon the stranger you felt you’d become, will be left behind
To make way for a confident woman, beautiful, bold and strong
A happy, loving woman, who knows she does belong
So hang in there, for you are loved, your spirits soon will soar
And your light will shine for all to see, brighter than before."

Our lives are made up of a series of stages, often difficult emotionally, physically and mentally, to deal with. But it is how we overcome these difficult stages that make us who we are. Only when one goes through one of these stages can one truly understand and give empathy to others who are going through the same experiences.
It is my time to go through one of those changes in life. I just needed to share it with others who are experiencing the same or similar changes. Don't resist this change, flow with it, do what it takes, for through this process you will grow into a more complete, happy, loving, understanding you!
The 'spirit light' butterfly is symbolic of the cycles of life and transformation. .......I know I have a thing about butterflies at the moment.
