Butterflies Hitting Home Runs: A 29 year journey… The transformation from a boy to a man.

The caterpillar stays in its cocoon imprisoned without food for weeks. Sometimes the caterpillar remains in the cocoon for a month. Inside the cocoon, its body is broken and completely reshaped. Maintaining just a little of its original form. Caterpillars go through many stages of transformations: egg, larva, pupa, and adult. The wings start to emerge, and when it finally breaks the walls of its prison, a beautiful butterfly arises. That ugly insect will never crawl again because now it has wings, and it is going to fly. Jesus resembles the shape of a butterfly, after going through the pain on the cross.There is a caterpillar in each one of us. With each day of our lives we are faced with many challenges and temptations. It took me 29 years to find myself. Each day that God blesses me to see, I continue to evolve as a stronger and wiser man. Great men throughout history were like butterflies. They transmitted their wisdom from person to person helping them blossom. I know who I am today and that’s the greatest feeling of all. Once upon a time I was an imprisoned caterpillar, and today I am a shackle free butterfly flying high.
