Description

Many times when we get older, we do things in our past we aren’t proud of. It’s easy to allow that to define us, but we are not our past. We are who we choose to be today and how we move forward. Hanging on to our past only creates shame and guilt that we don’t earn any extra points for suffering through.

I chose the snake, because while I am scared to handle them, they are survivors and powerful animals. They also shed their skin as they grow and evolve into a new and improved being. We can do the same with our past. Instead of being afraid of what people will remember, make them afraid to know what we are about to accomplish.
