I have Not Lived In Vain

                                                                                                                                                               No, I did not help a fainting robin unto his nest again, but I saved this butterfly! They laughed hysterically when I came running into the house in search of an implement to free him......

 But I had the last laugh as he fluttered off to freedom!

A worthy, valiant task. Who knows what the knock-on effect will be?

You saw a fellow creature in distress and you helped it. Good work.

dianne said...

oh no!!! what have you done?!? the fluttering wings of that saved butterfly may cause a typhoon halfway across the World...

open wide and take your spoonful of guilt like a good girl...

I thought the same thing as dianne. By the way, it's flooding big time in Thailand right now.

You must have a very delicate and precise touch!
And a very kind heart. But I knew that, anyway!

You're the Butterfly Whisperer! What was he tangled in? I haven't seen butterflies here all season and on Saturday I saw three of them and it looked like they were headed south. It's just amazing to me that such delicate little creatures actually migrate!

What a good heart you have ! And maybe , if this butterfly weren't to flutter its wings tomorrow , something disastrous might happen ....?

We are kindred souls in this way.

Pam said...

Aww. It lives to flutter again.

Such a lovely butterfly. Even the ugly things seem worth saving, somehow. I liberate Huntsman spiders so they don't get killed indoors!
