to fly
With their vibrant flashes of life, butterflies and moths have enchanted humans for centuries. Marveling at their intricate beauty, delicacy, and gracefulness, I find peace and refuge in their glass-walled sanctuary: a welcome reprieve from the chaos of the world. Their fragile form and brief but extraordinary life cycle have made them a universal symbol for our own ever-evolving transformations through life, death, and rebirth. In the face of my family’s own transitions, the grace they exhibit instills a sense of calming assurance for the unknown future.
