Oh Chaline, thank you so much for sharing that Native American story with me... I like it better than everything I read about butterflies so far! :)

Beautiful, Angela. There is a story from Native Americans about how the butterfly got it wings. The short version is that it saw birds and wanted to sing, and fly high into the air, one day while talking to a crow, the butterfly asked about learning to sing. The crow replied, each has his own gift and yours is in spectacular colours that reflect the sky and flowers, the trees and fields and bring joy to those who behold you. The butterfly sat smiling and spread its wings understanding, now, it's gift and the beauty of it's uniqueness among flying things.
