Metamorphosis

Life has felt strange these last few days. I feel as though I'm getting to know a new person. That person is me.

I feel like I'm breaking in a new pair of jeans, except I'm the pair of jeans. You know, how brand new jeans are: a bit stiff and ambiguous. And over many wears they slowly wrinkle here and bulge there adjusting to your unique lines, curves and movements. After many, many wears they even assume your shape when you're not wearing them. In fact, even after washing and drying them they maintain the imprint of your body. At this point it's as if they were custom made for you. Your body has essentially reshaped their fibers.

And so, I am like a new pair of jeans getting to know what seems like, and probably is, a different me.
