Very lovely. It is comforting to imagine each of us might move through bodies and lives… experiencing living and dying from different perspectives. I love the way you drop into such a deep metaphor from this tiny object. I also appreciate the way you’ve bound together love and grief. If you’re interested in exploring that more, please read my piece about it. https://wendygolden2.substack.com/p/the-sparkly-little-elephant?r=3jyto&utm_medium=ios
Love and grief are two sides of the same coin. The more we love the more we grieve. And each time we feel a wave of grief it is also a surge of love. I’ll check out your piece too. Thanks for sharing. 💙
How seldom do we really take a moment to reflect, and understand the beauty of life. This butterfly is but the perfect example. I feel completely different after reading this piece, I’ll never forget it, because it has changed my life; it has allowed me to fathom the intricacies of life and its inherent value.
Wow. This is such a wonderful response. I am touched that this piece impacted you so deeply. Thank you for sharing your reflection and for your capacity to bear witness. 🥰
Aww this was adorable! Cos honestly, imagine someone acknowledging the beauty in the broken pieces of you! And honoring life after death, knowing butterflies symbolise transformation and setting it free - such a spiritually driven act of gratitude. Beautiful 🦋
