But each of us are different; we all experience dnots differently.

Geeeeze!
Glad your ok now!
Mine was mainly real world stuff too but there is that point where you have to look inwards - what you find is going to vary.
Why it is there is going to vary from person to person.
For me the crucifixion & resurrection is essentially a tale of the dark night of the soul - we carry our crosses until we can bear them no longer, the cross restricts us/ hold us in a period of deep pain before we change dramatically spiritually.
The butterfly & cocoon also works well as a metaphor except that the "beauty" is a beautiful spirit.
