Butterfly Talk



Sometimes, I see a quote or an image, and I feel like it’s perfect for how I am feeling right now. And sometimes I just think they are pretty. This one is beautiful, and honestly, when would there possibly be a bad day to be a butterfly?

Okay, it’s not the greatest quote or verse in the world, but I still like it. I like the image of a tattered, battered butterfly with bullet holes in its wings, still determined to rise and fly and be what she was meant to be, long after others would have given up.


Look who’s back! I spent all weekend wracking my brain for a clever, witty, inspiring new title for my blog, but ultimately I decided to fall back on the Stained Glass Butterfly theme. I always thought it was my prettiest blog, and I just love that butterfly. (Gotta give credit to the artist who created it: https://www.behance.net/gallery/4136751/The-Gothic-Butterfly).
So here I am. So what? Well, I am still struggling to get back on my feet. The end of the year did a number on my weight loss and fitness goals. I am not even quite sure why I slipped so hard and so far. Maybe just burned out and tired of the whole process.
I don’t come back with any grand, glorious proclamations of a triumphant comeback, or a list of heartfelt promises or resolutions that won’t make it to the end of the month. I can only come back with the knowledge that what I was doing, stopped working; and without making some changes, I will not find success. And that I am not now, or anytime soon, ready to quit! With that, let’s get back to the journey, shall we?
