How many of you Chalkheads are experiencing a shitshow right now? I know many of you are because I have your names on my morning conference call to heaven.
It’s okay.
Everybody we know, everybody we love, everybody we pass on the boulevard has some kind of crap mucking up their day.
Think about today's quote.
Our current downtrend is a caterpillar stage in life. We are crawling through the dirt praying that a bird doesn’t swoop down and devour our sad ass.
This is a period when we feel ugly. We feel mundane and we are searching for a change in life that can pull us out of our shitshow.
We need a break to build a cocoon that can give us the security to rest and reincarnate ourselves.
The outcome, on the other hand will be the time to float like a butterfly. Life will be beautiful; life will have a new meaning. Life will be less of a shitshow and a little brighter and more copacetic.
Unfortunately, we must endure the bad days to relish the good ones. We must struggle through the challenges and hurdles thrown onto the calendar.
It’s kind of a crapshoot to trust that life's journey will bring us an easier path forward. There is no promise that we will become the butterfly in this metaphor.
That’s enough of the sappy Sunday sermon that took up too much chalk.
Just remember, we are all caterpillars longing to become butterflies.
What a difference a day makes. Saturday was a spring-like day and Sunday will feel autumnal maybe even winterish.
Here comes the backend of March. Let the madness begin.
