Shedding Skin

Staying in one’s identity - feeling ourselves in our own skin - can feel safe, comfortable. In Shedding Skin, what may appear to be the “veil” is actually about “skin” - one doesn’t want to leave identity (shed their skin) but eventually has to let it go as they move into the new context. A place of (dis)placement is not about better or worse, free or unfree; it is bittersweet, involving acceptance, coming to peace, independence, shedding attachment, and letting go.
