Claire Sammons

I, Claire Sammons, was born to be a butterfly. I am well aware that this is an odd statement for anyone to say, but it’s true. Every aspect of my personality and life resembles that of a butterfly. It started when I underwent a metamorphosis in my lifetime and emerged from my cocoon transformed into a new being. I am still growing and finding my wings and passions so that I can fly away to my future and my home. The exciting aspect of my life is that I have no knowledge of where I might land in my flight. I am free as long as the wind carries me. In my adventures, I plan to flourish wherever I migrate.
Physically, it may be a stretch to say that I am a butterfly. Butterflies have such brightly colored wings made up of tiny, uniquely patterned scales. As much as I like to believe that I have gorgeous butterfly wings, I don’t actually have wings or scales, but I don’t need those things in order to be different from everyone else. I still have a sense of individuality and uniqueness about myself. There is no other being designed like me.
Butterflies are remarkable creatures. Their lifespans are only a couple weeks, and in that time period, their existence has the ability to make someone’s day brighter. That is the goal with my time. If my existence is able to make someone’s day brighter, then my flight was worth every dip and turn.
