The Butterfly Maker

Dear Beautiful Butterfly,

You cried when i was making incisions in your body... you bled... but dear butterfly, i had to make a place to fix your wings...


Making painful incisions on you was my way of letting you know you are better than a "crawler" you are meant for flying, not for crawling


You snapped and cursed,got mad when i tied you up...i felt your pain...but dear butterfly,that is when i had fixed your wings,and you had to be totally immobile for them to hold strong against future strong winds...


Tying you down was for me to ensure that not only could you fly,but your wings would weather the strongest winds of life...


You momentarily stopped crying when i untied you...only to cry louder when i left and switched off all the lights...i know all you saw was darkness...and most of what i was doing made no sense at the time,but i knew if you learnt to flex your wings when you were all alone and in total darkness...there would be no destination unreachable for you in the skies...under the bright sun...


Leaving you alone in the dark was my way of trusting you to be strong as an individual,and to always find your way,even on dark days...



You now have everything you need Beautiful Butterfly...although it took some time,some darkness,some hurt & pain,some patience,you now have all you need so...Fly Butterfly Fly...so much awaits you under the sun :)


Jeremiah 29:11 " For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future"

P/S Let your beauty spots remind of you just how strong you really are ... to have endured the metamorphosis you went through...you came through more beautiful,stronger,wiser...

 Fly Butterfly Fly... Fly Butterfly Fly... Fly Butterfly Fly... Fly Butterfly Fly...Trust me, i have given you everything you need for your journey :)

Lots of love,
The Butterfly Maker.
