Waiting for Spring

When winter overwhelms me, I remind myself to think of spring. Waiting is hard. I picture a butterfly suspended in its cocoon. To a casual observer, there doesn’t seem to be much happening. However, inside that protective cover an amazing transformation is taking place, a process not even the butterfly understands. When the time is right, and only then, a beautiful creature emerges, ready to spread its wings. Not everyone makes it through this change. But there is hope for a new beginning. It takes a bit of faith.
