What is Transformation?

Surrendering to an irresistible inner urging, one day the caterpillar begins to shed its skin. Revealed within is the hard protective shell that becomes the creature’s home, prison and womb for the change to come. This initiates one of nature’s miracles—the transformation from an immobile chrysalis whose only defense is camouflage— to a breathtakingly beautiful winged aviator we call “butterfly.”
