What if the caterpillar refuses to transform, remains hell-bent in her resistance to transformation?
No! I will not build the cocoon. I just want to crawl across the milkweed leaves and eat them.
Many of us resist change because it’s scary. Transformation can feel like a big, frightening event.
But resistance carries a heavy tax.
What price will you pay if you refuse to transform? What will you miss?
In the October InkWell WordShop we will explore the word transform.
What happens when we resist? What happens when we surrender? What is our experience of transformation—of body, of mind, of spirit.
Join me in October for this generative writing workshop to explore your own relationship with transformation.
