The Fragile Beauty
I was scrolling through Instagram the other day when I saw a reel that made me stop in my tracks. A girl was carefully fixing a butterfly’s wing, making a tiny prosthetic with just glue and the delicate wing of a deceased butterfly. It made me emotional. Butterflies live such short lives, sometimes only a couple of weeks, yet their brief existence is so full of beauty and purpose. They deserve to be happy, to fly high, and to be admired - and that thought melted my heart.
