What Wisdom Comes From A Butterfly?
This is a photo – I think – of a Gabbs Checkerspot butterfly taken on a backpacking trip last summer.
The meaning and symbolism of a butterfly include transformation, grace, beauty, and the magic of believing.
I want to focus on that last one… the magic of believing.
There is magic in believing.
Believing I can.
Believing I will.
Believing in myself.
Believing in others.
Believing in self-love.
Believing in transformation.
Believing in change.
Believing there is magic all around me.
Believing there are miracles all around me.
There is power in believing.
Something else that I’ve been thinking about is that the butterfly morphs on its own timetable. It isn’t competing with another butterfly – it is simply doing its own thing and continuing forward in its path. From an egg to larvae (caterpillar) to pupa (chrysalis happens here) to adult butterfly. Magic in believing.
