on peace and gratitude even on the rainy days

A couple of months ago, I saw the most beautiful blue butterfly. She almost landed on me, but instead settled on the ground. I noticed she was missing a huge chunk of her right wing so I began to approach her, thinking she was hurt. I spoke softly and gently and asked if I could help her, but she fluttered a couple of feet away from me. I tried again. And again, she fluttered a few feet away from me. I tried several more times but she kept flying away from me little by little until she just flew off toward the sky.

I stood and watched her confidently fly away… she didn’t need my help. She wasn’t 100% okay, but she was okay. She might’ve been missing almost an entire wing, but she was strong, and confident and flew toward the sun like she was trying to communicate with me. "I get it”, I smiled at the clouds.
