Dear God, I feel exposed! I want to run back to my comfort zone....
I feel like everything I've known my entire life has just been ripped off.
All this while, I have been in my cocoon where it was warm and safe, but now like a lost child,...
I'm standing in the middle of nowhere without the slightest idea of what to do, how to act or who to become.
There is this strong urge in my heart to run back - run back to what is familiar, run back to what is known, run back to what is secure, to what I know I can always bank on - my comfort zone….
But then there is an even stronger urge to wait, watch and explore all these possibilities I now have access to.
Honestly, it is hard to explain in comprehensible words because I feel fear, excitement and optimism at the same time.
Fear of what could go wrong, excitement for the new, and hope for something good.
How do I navigate all of these emotions? Where do I go from here? What should I do?
The best analogy to describe this would be the metamorphosing of a butterfly…
This creature may not have an outlet to express its emotions, or even have emotions at all,
but I can guess for a fact that during its period of metamorphosis from a caterpillar to a butterfly, it must be scary.
The feeling of being in a cocoon one day, and then at some point, you suddenly grow wings to fly, and now there's just so much breeze, and so much sunlight, and just so much freedom.
I can relate to how uncomfortable, scary and unfamiliar that may be because it is exactly how I feel right now.
I am in a new environment, with all of these new people and new opportunities, but there is so much uncertainty....
I have so many questions like what do I expect? How do I act? Who do I become?
I feel like right now I am in molten form seeking to be sculpted into a solid figure.

“You're right Sofia. You're currently in molten form.
Listen, this is an important phase in a person's life.
This stage is called the in-between, where it feels like you're trapped between two worlds - the familiar and the foreign.
You know you can no longer be the person you used to be, but you're not entirely sure of the person you're supposed to be.
This is the period of identity formation and now more than ever, you need to abide with your creator. Why?
Because in the popular Ariel cartoon, the mermaid princess mistook a fork which is supposed to be cutlery for eating as a comb which she used on her hair.
My point is this, like the famous saying, when the purpose of a thing, or in this case a person is not known, abuse is inevitable.
In this phase, you need to make sure all of the information and suggestions you're getting is from an excellent source.
If you are fed and influenced by the wrong source, e.g social media, school, society, strangers, friends and family, you will most likely become a shadow of your true identity.
Abiding with me in this season is an absolute necessity if you really want access to the accurate blueprint of your true identity and destiny.
Right now, I am your best bet because I made you, I formed you and I love you.
No one knows more about you than I do.
No one can tell you more about yourself like I can.
No one will look out for you as much as I will.
In this malleable form, you need to be molded into not just another version, but the right and best version of yourself.
You have so many questions and I have all the answers.
You are uncertain about the future and I know the past, present and future.
You need guidance and direction and I have been here the longest, so I sure know my way around.
Come my love. Stay with me and watch me create a spectacle with your life.”
