My Butterfly Wings - Self Portrait by Jaeda DeWalt

About this image:
This image represents breaking free from our self-imprisonments… be it a prison of pain, guilt, shame, unforgiveness… the things that can keep us chained to our past… robbing us of the beautiful gift of the present.
The butterfly wings represent transformation, emerging from a cocoon of negative patterns and starting anew.
The pull-up bar represents discovering ones own strength in times of struggle, rising above mental strong holds… transcendence.
My recent struggles have presented me with an opportunity to stretch my wings and i am grateful for the positive changes that brings.

dearest Jaeda , you done it again , love the POV the light and the mood you have created , it looks like you just left your Caterpillar life and morphed into the beautiful being you are.
