Caterpillars, Butterflies, & Letting Go.....

"If nothing ever changed, there'd be no butterflies."~Author Unknown
       Hello Loves...how are you all? I miss writing so much...it is so cathartic for me in so many ways yet I have been avoiding it because I feel as therapeutic as it is when I write things out, it also becomes my truth when I look down at that piece of paper. When I write I never hold back, not one bit. In my blogging I do more only because I feel not everyone deserves to see that much nakedness of my soul. I write to give back what other author's writing has done for me, & that is to fill my heart. To read their truth & feel less alone knowing I am not the only one who feels a certain way. So I only hope my writing does that for my readers.
   
      So much has changed since the last time I spoke with you. Good & bad but also eye opening to look within myself to see certain things I want to improve on & change. Have you ever felt so flawed where you almost wish you could start over in the way you have done things? I know I have, especially lately. But you know what...I can't & when I really think about my life, I now disagree. Because each mistake, each good deed, each heartache, each vulnerable moment, & everything I have done has made me who I am. I am a thirty year old girl who at times feels as though I can talk too much, I can be a bit selfish, I procrastinate, & I'm a bit of a diva too, but I also am a genuine girl that tries to make others laugh, tries to inspire people, & when I love someone I give everything I have. I am Janene Brooke...the late bloomer who does not really know what her next step in life is, but does know that the fear she usually feels is slowly melting away. So remember loves..there are certain moments like these where we wish we already were that perfect butterfly~flawless, beautiful, & in perfect harmony, but the truth is we are all caterpillars evolving over & over. So whether you feel like a butterfly at the moment or just a caterpillar that's okay too. Remember either place your in just know that you deserve love & in the end that can only truly come from within. Namaste.
