Renee De Four

Not being caught up and controlled by trends, political narratives, hunger, momentary pain, other peoples' opinions, comfort.

The more you are controlled, the less autonomy you own.

The less autonomy, the less fulfilment.

I need to look closer and see, did my pattern put this system, this reality, this task, this project, this expectation in place? Did this come from my pattern or come from my higher self?

Cut a chrysalis open and you will find a rotting caterpillar. What you will never find is that mythical creature, half caterpillar, half butterfly… No, the process of transformation consists almost entirely of decay.
