You have to read this little story allowing me a certain degree of artistic license. It was hard to tie the beauty up with the science without utterly murdering the message. That’s all I’m saying πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Wow. Beautiful. So much I love about this short story. So many people nowadays only focus on what divides us. A reminder to always look for the positive and light in life πŸ’•πŸ¦‹

Same here which is why I wrote it. A lot of butterflies attracted to moths and vice versa!

It does seem to be the case, opposites and all that

This is a lovely post. It’s good to look for the commonalities rather than focusing on the differences πŸ₯°

I had a full on phobia of moths when I was younger. I have trained myself out of it to the extent that it doesn’t affect my life but I still don’t care for them. Yet butterflies were never an issue. It’s always fascinated my logical brain as to quite where my instincts make a distinction. But what we are drawn to or repelled from doesn’t seem to be required to make any goddamn sense, does it?

I love this. I try to look for the gold in people around me, sometimes it shimmers brighter than others but it’s still there xx

It is. And we are all looking for light. Some of us have to place ourselves in the dark to find it.x
