From Caterpillar to Butterfly.....

caterpillar pictures, butterfly pictures, butterflies picture
How significant is your life? does your life really make a difference? The secret to this answer is really not a secret at all; because you are here to live a life of glorious purpose. The glorious purpose begins when you know that everything matters.

And.... everything that you do or don't do really does matters. 

When you become the person that God ordained you to be, even before you were ever conceived in your mother's womb, then everyone around you will be affected.

When you understand your purpose, not only will you thrive, others will also. Because, life decisions become wiser and more cautious .... as a Man,Woman, Girl, boy, leader, manager and co-worker.

And don't forget as friends too...

We must understand that what we do and the way we do it matters... even to those that we associate ourselves with.

When we know our purpose every result of our actions immediately improves....

Deciding to do the right thing and when to do it will make all the difference!


How far forward would I need to go in your life to show you the difference your life makes to others, when you are walking in the right paths as you should?

When you and I understand and follow the butterfly effect, generations yet unborn, whose very lives will be affected, shifted and shaped by the very moves you make and the actions you take starting now and will last a lifetime.

There has never been nor will there ever be another person like you. That makes you very special, so never try to be anyone else but you!!!

God has never made two things alike. Even, every leaf on a tree is different. This includes identical twins as well. For there are always distinguishing marks to indicate a difference.

Your spirit, thoughts and feelings, even your ability to reason and act, all exist in no one else, as it does in you.

You were created to make a difference. You are greater than Platinum or Gold. So, what will you do with your life starting now?

Now..... lets look at the life of a caterpillar... it is necessary that the caterpillar stay in the cocoon long enough to fully develop.

Listen.. the caterpillar crawls, eats dust, could get stepped on, moves slow and could easily get eaten.

The state of the caterpillar must continue, until it is time for Metamorphosis to begin. The caterpillar enters a cacoon and remain there until the change comes. If the caterpillar exits the cocoon to soon, it will never reach its full potential.

And when you and I do not follow the process presented to us by God, our parents and those that truly love us,,,, well, many times we don't reach our full potential either.

Listen ... The struggle for the Caterpillar in the cocoon is necessary to build up the strength in its wings, in order to carry the weight of its body during flight.

God understands the necessity of this process. That is why we are allowed to experience difficult, often life-changes events.

But we must continue to grow and develop to be what we are destined to be. As with the butterfly, every move is calculated, designed and ordained for us to grow and develop.

Again.... what you do matters and it affect others.

Just for a moment think of people who have made a huge difference in this life. And in your thinking, imagine if those people never stepped out of the box in their thinking or used their God given talents.

Eli WhitneyGeorge Washington CarverMartin Luther King Jr.GandhiMother Teresa, Steve Jobs,  Megar EversPresident Obama, President George W. Bush and so many others that went through struggles, pressed their way and still made a huge difference in life.

They stepped out of the box in their thinking and in their actions and dared to make a difference. And so can you!!!

Dare to dream, dare to be whom you were ordained-destined to be. You Can Make A Difference!!!

Now, you may think this is crazy. But, you remember George Wallace. The one time racist Governor of Alabama. He went through a life changing event when he was shot and became paralyzed for the rest of his life.

George Wallace's attitude changed after that incident and he became the governor of Alabama once again. Voted back into office and respected by many blacks.

This was a life changing event for Governor Wallace... but the end of his legacy was different from the beginning of his reign as Governor. In a positive way!!!

You are special, so please be like the caterpillar and make the necessary changes to go into flight and be the person you were destined to be and touch lives.

You go through difficult times, life changing events but you must continue the struggle to become that person, that can make a change for the better and become just as beautiful as the butterfly. And, then take your flight and make a difference.

The butterfly effect is known as the law of sensitive dependence based upon initial conditions.

Struggle is still necessary for change to take place. So welcome any and all struggles and always remember, God is always and forever close!!!


Metamorphosis: a complete or marked change of physical form, structure, or substance.

Reign: The period of time during which somebody, especially a king or queen, rules a nation.

Has your metamorphosis began?


These are my thoughts .... I welcome yours!!!!!!
