Hi everyone this is corey

i don’t know about everyone else but i like wearing a lot of bangles on my wrists. maybe it has to do with my great aunt kay. she always has bangles on her arms. maybe its an inherited tendency to be crazy about bracelets but mostly bangles.

today me and mom got a bangle with a butterfly charm. do you know what a butterfly stands for? i’ll tell you…a butterfly changes from a caterpillar to a cocoon to a butterfly. its the symbol for TBI. basically it means once you get a TBI you are changed. you will never be the same but that doesn’t mean you don’t change for the better. a butterfly has to fight its way out of its dark cocoon and then its brand new, beautiful and free to fly wherever it wants. i am like the butterfly because i am in the process of changing. i get a do over. i get to be a new me. i don’t know what will happen or where i will fly but i’m excited for whatever GOD will send me.

so the next time you see a butterfly try and be inspired. remember every thing it had to go through to be here with us, xoxo
