All is well, little one.

Don’t rush yourself
to change

The dissolving
requires a lot of energy

Give yourself time
Give yourself grace.

Know that what feels hard now,
the things you want
so badly to do and be,
that feel so impossible to attain,

will come with ease
when you are ready
and not before.

Give the dissolving time.

Rest your head
on the shoulder of trust,

Everything that’s right for you
will happen for you
in divine timing.

Knowing this
won’t make the journey
less uncomfortable,

grief is a close companion,
an important portal,
to any evolution.

Try not to resist
the discomfort,
do not try to bypass
what arises within you,

but let this be a glimmer,
a soft light to follow,

when the cocoon
feels especially dark,
and the dissolving
feels especially disorienting.

One day you will emerge
with wings to carry you
to all the places
you always dreamed of
and beyond.

All is well, little caterpillar.
