“We must be willing to get rid of the life we’ve planned, so as to have the life that is waiting for us.
The old skin has to be shed before the new one can come.
If we fix on the old, we get stuck. When we hang onto any form, we are in danger of putrefaction.
Hell is life drying up.”
– Joseph Campbell
Often I post the quotes I need to be reminded of the most in my own life. In Portugal I’ve found a safe and gentle place to be while I move towards the life that is waiting for me.
In the quiet and darkness of winter I allow the changes to happen as the old parts of my life that no longer serve me fall away.
Over the years I’ve shed my skin many times, but now I want to do more than just grow. I want to be transformed. .
Cells that were always inside of me have started to take shape. I look forward to seeing what form they take.
