It's so easy to get wrapped up in society's expectations of where we SHOULD be in life: married, with kids, settled, with everything figured out.
But butterflies can spend an entire winter in a chrysalis before they get their wings. That time is not wasted, it's necessary!
Hard seasons can be the same for us. It's often the hard times that show us who we truly are, what we value, what we say no to, and all we have to offer.
So maybe you've been in a chrysalis of a hard season - and when you emerge - I promise, life is just beginning.

One of a kind — once it's gone, it's gone
