Inspired by lyrics to “Butterfly” by Jana Stanfield & Joyce Johnson RousePlease tell me again, I’m gonna be alright.
I can feel a change is comin’, I can feel it in my skin.
I can feel myself outgrowing this life I’ve been living in.
All of the things that we long for are born on the wings of change.
Losses can lead us to blessings that we can’t explain.
Butterflies remind us, there’s magic in every life.
