New Structure for Cocoons 2 Butterflies




When I created Cocoons 2 Butterflies, I did it because I was trying to find myself. I knew I had difficulty being true to myself and I figured that writing would help me get there. But that was not my only reason.

I made this page because in my quest to find my passion in life I encountered many other people who like me had lost their spark, and I wanted to be able to help others who where in the Journey to Self Discovery. People who go through life just wondering who they are, living day to day just surviving. I want to be able to help through my writing those people who also find themselves lost.

My third reason for making this blog was because once I became a parent I realized how important the role of a parent is. Our children depend on us to show them to way, to inspire them, to help them identify at a early age what their strengths are so they can develop them. We need to help our children find their true identities, or inner butterflies at a young age so that they can make the most out of every day of their lives.

Finding the best way to achieve this has been difficult, as there is so much information out there, so many things that I am learning day to day. It makes me wonder what is the best way to share all this knowledge with the world.

I am really grateful that since I started writing many events have occurred that have taken me from not knowing at all who I am to being certain of who I am and learning new things every day. Things that I can't wait to share with all of you.

My main obstacle right now is How to organize all this information.
At this moment I am studying several things:

Instant Influence
How to Focus and get the right things Done
Social Media Marketing
Secrets of Good Marriages
How to be more grateful

And I have planned for the future the following topics:
How to discover your children's best qualities and help develop them
How to raise confident children
Principles of the Law of Attraction
Dream Interpretation

As you may see these are too many topics, but they are topics that are constantly in my brain. I am reading, and studying and learning as much as I can about these topics that interest me so much.

I am also involved in the arts and graphic design and wish to learn how to make websites and be a better graphic designer, and also am interested in learning about Life Coaching.

However, I cannot do all this at the same time. I need some structure so I want to get your input.

Which ones of these topics interest you the most?

And what would you find more productive?
To concentrate on a single topic a month? Or have a different topic for each day of the week?

I have made a poll on my Facebook Page and I encourage you all to go there an vote. Your information will help me greatly.


Also if there's any other topic that you would be interested in me exploring, please share it here as well. Thanks to all of you for being so great and helping me out on my quest.

Happy Easter Everyone!

I have been absent from this Blog for a whole month and I can't believe it's been so long. I have been putting off writing for this long, I guess I believed this Blog Dare would keep me inspired, but the truth is that I don't feel like writing about none of the topics that I have been given. So I didn't.
But I am going to start anew, once again. Writing a Blog becomes part of your life, and if you don't make it match with it then it can become something that you are not open to keep as part of your life. But Cocoons 2 Butterflies is a part of me, so I have to be true to myself and make it what I want it to be, not what other people say I should make it. So, starting off today I am going to share what I did on Easter. I'm sure many of you also had some celebrations so I want you guys to share with me what you did.

Here are some pictures of our day:







This year we had an egg hunt in the house. Last year we where in Puerto Rico and we where able to have the egg hunt outside in the grass, it was amazing, but this year we had to settle for indoors. We also went to Church, and had some lunch outside, and made tie dye eggs and Easter egg cupcakes, and we watched the Movie Hop.
How did you spend your Easter Holiday? Did you have fun? Are there any traditions that you would like to share?
So how did you enjoy your Easter?
