Original Submission by Tawanna Welsey

Transformation:

Close your eyes and imagine where you can escape to..

Challenging yourself to embrace the changes and accepting the truth..

All the while the heavens are reaching out to you..

Boldly changing and rearranging your total being..from your heart to your mind to your soul..

Meditating on the purpose that is yearning to be loved.. and waiting for this transformation to take control..

Fantasizing about the endless possibilities that await this process.

The newness of self.. and the gratification of a cleansed spirit in progress..

Like when a butterfly, is fresh out of it's cocoon, takes off to explore..

We have to give ourselves that same ambition...always and forevermore..
