A Question To Ask Yourself (Butterflies)

As another wonderful day draws to another peaceful close, I will leave with one last thought.

A last thought:
Imagine you are a butterfly. A butterfly with wings scarecly bigger in width than that of a sheet of paper, but beautifully coloured and bright and happy. Outside it is an incredibly windy day, the leaves flutter about as though in tornados, and instead of whispering to each other the trees give the impression of shouting at each other. There are two types of butterfly.

Two Types of Butterfly
Type one- Will look at the leaves flying around and hear the wind and become scared and fearful, and find somewhere sheltered to hide until the wind settles down and stay there safely.
Type Two- Will look around at her friends with the excitement building, take a deep breath and fly out into the wind. She will laugh as it takes her higher and flying around in circles. She will enjoy every second of it as it rushes over her wings. She wont try to flap her wings to fight it, she will just go with it, knowing that whatever happens she will still be okay.

My question to you.
My question to you is this, which type of butterfly are you? Are you scared of life, or are you willing to jump and go for it without fully knowing the consequences? Do you know, we are not scared of heights, we are scared of falling and even then, it's only because we're scared of getting hurt when we hit the floor, but consider this- what if we didn't hit the floor? What if we were caught? What if, per chance, we should land on a tampoline in someones back garden? Or in the deep blue ocean, with a boat near by to rescue us when we surface? And what if, when we stand back up again, we realise that the fall was one of the most exciting experiences we'd ever had in life, and we'd give anything just to do it again? You never know, take the chance, take the risk, it might just be the thing that makes your life perfect.

And of course darlings- Keep Smiling :)
