How to Transform as You Come Back From Adversity

Sock Doll Hannah

Hannah, a doll made from a stray sock, is quite a helpless creature.

Hannah sometimes has days with her face in the dirt, like a caterpillar.Caterpillar Hannah

 

 

When she can’t take any more of life’s dirt, she creates a cocoon for herself,Cozy Hannah
Where she can heal, rejuvenate and recreate herself.

But eventually the cocoon becomes a prison, and she finds a way to break out.Hannah the Comeback Queen
As she emerges, she discovers that while cocooning, she has been transformed.

Hannah is helpless no longer; she can fly wherever she pleases.Hannah's wings

Helpless Hannah has become the Comeback Queen!

By following Hannah’s process from caterpillar-in-the-dirt through close-up Hannah + wingspinning a cocoon, you too can find a way to transform as you come back from the adversity in your life.

Everybody who has knitted or done weaving or embroidery knows what an agreeable effect this can have, for you can be quiet and lazy without feeling guilty and also can spin your own thoughts while working. You can relax and follow your fantasy and then get up and say you have done something! Also the work demands patience which , . . . is quite an exercise.
