“I have been fighting myself to live and not just be alive my whole life. Blanchet House has been an intricate tool in keeping me fed and keep the will to survive this tough time. I’m gonna put being alive in the backseat. I’m ready to live.”
About the piece: The American Dream, housing, fellowship, love. Everyone needs all of the above.
We Are Like Flowers by Cheryl

“The butterflies represent my story and my transformation.
Each one symbolizes the difficult stages I went through: addiction, loneliness, depression, and the moments when I felt there was no hope. There were times of great pain, of setbacks, and of internal struggles that seemed endless.
But, like a butterfly, I went through a process of change. My life didn’t remain in darkness. Little by little, I found the strength to get up, face my fears, and leave behind everything that hurt me.
Today, the butterflies represent the person I have become: someone stronger, freer, and more independent. They remind me that each day is a new opportunity to fly, enjoy my freedom, and value the life I have built.
They don’t represent a perfect past, but a victory over it. They are a symbol that change is possible, that there is always hope, and that, no matter how difficult the path has been, we can always be reborn and spread our wings.”
