It's a crystal butterfly ~ a butterfly of the mineral kingdom  ------------------ “It’s an interesting thing. Seeing Kuan Yin relating to a flower so intently. She's not just looking at it; she's interacting with it…I’m seeing how the act of relating to a flower appears to be so simple. Yet, it takes a tremendous amount of courage to make such a “simple” act important. Now, the lotus is floating away.” IP: Logged |

... and we have a foot of them piling up today  **How does one become a butterfly?" she asked. "You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.**

The Butterfly Transmutation, Dance of Joy
The butterfly is the symbol of change, joy and color. It is the symbol of the soul. They remind us that life is a dance, not to take things quite so seriously. They also remind us to get up and move. Dance brings the sweetness of life. Butterflies bring color and joy to your life. Look at them and remember what joy is in your life, if its a lot or a little, it is still joy. They teach us that growth and transformation does not have to traumatic; it can occur gently, sweetly, joyfully. If a butterfly totem has shown up in your life, make note of the most important issues in your life, and see what needs to be changed.

Lovely !!Not quite birds, as they were not quite flowers, mysterious and fascinating as are all indeterminate creatures. Elizabeth Goudge I do not know whether I was then a man dreaming I was a butterfly, or whether I am now a butterfly dreaming I am a man. Chuang Tzu Love is like a butterfly, it goes where it pleases and it pleases wherever it goes. Love is like a butterfly, hold it too tight, it'll crush. Hold it too loose, it'll fly.

Spring has sprungfall has fell... and it`s colder out than ___  Where have those flowers and butterflies all gone That science may have staked the future on? He seems to say the reason why so much Should come to nothing must be fairly faced. ~Robert Frost, "Pod of the Milkweed"

"How soft indeed the song of butterflies eating." ~~Takayama Kyoshi "To make a wish come true, whisper it to a Butterfly. Upon these wings it will be taken to heaven and granted, for they are the messengers of the Great Spirit." ~~Native American Legend September is almost on us, again 2012. A lovely Monarch got stuck on my jeep radiator yesterday My hope is s/he left a legacy on the wild milkweed and babies are floating gracefully somewhere ... no where near the road way!!
