I just realized:
I’m in the goo phase.
The part where everything softens, dissolves, almost disintegrates. Where I’m reduced to a kind of cellular slurry—a slushy—unrecognizable, even to myself at times. It’s not the first time.
This phase can last a few days, or weeks.
Depends on hormones. Depends on the environment.
Depends on what’s ready to die off.
It’s the phase of surrender. A radical reset. The psychological reset.
Not much feels familiar—but it still feels right.
A bit dark. But it’s what’s needed.
This is the transformation phase. The messy but necessary middle—in the middle of my life.
The sacred pause.
Like the butterfly: from caterpillar, to goo, to having wings…
see you on the other side.
