You Can’t Talk Butterfly to Caterpillar People
It’s easy in a hip response to say, “but hey caterpillars are butterflies”. But they are not. And not all caterpillars turn into butterflies.

Candy Canes
I recently had an experience. I found hot cocoa flavored candy canes. I am always skeptical about things like this but I’m usually willing to try. So, I did.

Afraid Of The Dark
When we are born, we come from a dark protected place into a cold bright scary world. Everything is so loud and overwhelming. Being passed from person to person, shaking, crying, exposed to the real world out from our protected cocoon. We were safe in the dark.
