"Caterpillar" by Carolina, 17 | Prairieview Nature Photography

This caterpillar reminds me of all the journeys we have to go through in life. Along the journey, we will make some major changes and some little changes in life. I also notice that the caterpillar has obstacles surrounding it, and has to choose to face the obstacles or go around them. This is telling me that you either face your challenges and hopefully learn, or avoid them and learn the hard way.

About Carolina: "My name is Carolina and I am currently 17 years old. I am at Northwest Passage for strong suicidal ideation. Some challenges I have faced while at NWP are learning to love myself, taking control of my thoughts, and vocalizing my coping skills. InaNewLight program has changed my perspective on life by allowing me to take some alone time to notice nature's beauty. Nature has changed my perspective in many ways. It has brought me closer to God. I will always remember my experience in InaNewLight, how words have become reality and I am able to express my feelings like never before when it is just me and nature. I will forever be thankful for that."
