The Butterfly lesson..


Butterflies,the most intricately designed species amongst the others that god made...I'm sure it took him a lot of them in making each one so unique,in terms of the designs they bear,so distinct,in terms of their bright and fluorescent colors,which makes each one of them so attractive and alluring,that you would want to catch them in your hands for a while and enjoy their pulchritudinous..but Alas..God gave them wings!

So what do these ravishing creations of god signify or symbolize ??
The Butterfly is a symbol of change or transformation, joy and love.Its a powerful symbol in myth and religion. For Early Christians, it represented the soul itself.
In China it symbolized conjugal bliss and joy.
American Indians call upon the butterfly for guidance in change, color, and happiness.
To sum it up,its a symbol of an ideal happy living...
What is life without color,freedom or change?A life not worth being called "life"!!!
Philosophically,a butterfly is Gods way of telling the people how one should lead a life full of the evergreen colors of happiness,freedom,love and joy...and not just this but how one must adapt to his surroundings so as to lead a harmonious,peaceful and a beautiful life..so the keyword here is "CHANGE"/"ADAPTATION".
My take:"The only constant in our lives is change!!"

lets take a lesson or two from the tiny thing...to make our lives as divine and stunning as that of the butterfly's!

God Bless

  4. Butterflies can also signify a fickle nature. They don't stick to one place for more than what 5 mins!!! which can be a good thing as well as a bad thing depending on your perspective !!
    Change is an important thing , but you know what people just want the bad parts to change and want the good parts to remain forever, thats human nature!!
