The Calm Before the Storm

From out of the womb we are born into a storm. Like a cacoon emerges a butterfly. Uncertain of what each day will bring. We rise and except the offering. The womb is the calm before the storm. Where we form and are equipped with whatever we are dealt. With only one way out.
