Change can be life-transforming in a positive way if you embrace it wholeheartedly.  But the embrace can’t be tentative.  You must be willing to make the change as permanent as the change that turns a caterpillar into a butterfly.

The caterpillar goes into a cocoon thinking it’s the end of its existence.  But in reality, it’s preparing for a new beginning as a totally different creature: a butterfly.  Change is necessary for this marvelous metamorphosis.

In our lives, too, drastic change or major crises are sometimes necessary to create breakthroughs that bring about transformation.

Make a clean break with the past. Despite the initial scare, it is wonderfully rewarding.
