“a caterpillar doesn’t just grow into a butterfly. a caterpillar must undergo metamorphosis, and a cocoon is where a caterpillar risks it all: enters total chaos, undergoes total rebuilding, and is born to a new way of living. only in taking the risk of entering that inert cocoon can the caterpillar go from dormancy to potency, from ugliness to beauty.”
I AM A CATERPILLAR AND I AM GOING TO TALK.

the caterpillar a.k.a. kulit a.k.a. jr3: (1) a strikingly odd combo of a nice dream and a nightmare (2) one of those fiery beings…almost always passionate about every endeavor (3) keeps going and going and going and… (4) glad to be swimming lost in the big ocean of life, fighting off energy/emotional vampires, pursuing adventures far from the comfort zones and living in ways other people could only dream of.

no better way to say something about “personal evolution” than saying “i am a caterpillar and i am going to talk…”
i’m one, too…for talking. more often though, and lately, i keep wishing i’d, somehow, learn to “fly”. for months now, i’ve not been up to “talking”…
i appreciate this site though… and you. never stop “talking”.
i enjoyed reading
ok caterpillar, got to know your real identity -as you are one of my children. (2001?)
that AYLC pic was way too small.

caterpillar, i just flew into your lair. it made me smile because i was 24 when i started “talking” to the world. i used to bottle up feelings inside journals and artworks, and kept mum about opinions i shouldn’t have kept to myself.
now, i am a madame butterfly, hopping from one blog to another, happily checking out caterpillars like you who are on the verge of blossoming like i did many years ago. someday you will spread your wings and fly. in my 30s now, i have quietly settled in my necktar of life. When you see your cocoon, dive for it like i did, many many years ago. i guarantee you there is no turning back.
