Parable of the Butterfly

Parable of the Butterfly A beautiful butterfly of blue landed on my nose. I was so delighted that I kept it in a cage. Nurtured it and sang to it, I love it so. But the Butterfly was sad, would not eat and the wings wilted. It broke my heart to see this beautiful creature in this way. I knew that if I let her go she would not return. This sad day I let her go and I cried. The next day while in my porch rocking chair in sadden mood, the butterfly returned and Landed on my nose. I let her be with me and not in a cage and we were happy.
