Letter to My New Stomach

Jan 07, 2011

December 25, 2010     Dear Black Butterfly,   I want to write you the perfect letter, but I am having a difficult time in expressing deep gratitude in advance. Please don’t take offense, I am just a little speechless – and scared.  Your new life of may seem a little blurry at first, but in time, clarity will come. The first day you break from your cocoon, I know you will be beautiful and unique. You won’t ask for much. In fact, your first meal will probably be a few sips of Miss. Water. Miss. Water is your friend and she is good for you. Oh, remind me to introduce you to Mr. Protein and Mrs. Vegetables, they are very nice neighbors of yours. But please stay away from Mr. Crabby Carbs and Mr. Bubbly Soda, they are gangsters and will try to burn your wings if you cross their path. Overtime you will develop a modest appetite. You will be fed healthy goodies and only digest food when you’re hungry.    Can you imagine that you are a reincarnation of your predecessor-the Loch Ness Monster? I know that is hard to believe, but it is true. That damn Loch Ness Monster ate everything in its path and then one day turned into a cocoon, and out you came – a beautiful Black Butterfly. Remember this is an extraordinary journey, and you were the chosen one.  There will be days that you regret you ever started this journey and then there will be days that this journey will bring you enlightment. It is up to you to stay the course and remember why you were chosen. Take care of yourself and live your best life.   Kind regards,       Kimberly
