The Short Life of the Butterfly!

Reading time: 1 min

I still see my sister’s face often, her smile, her eyes, even the words she spoke when I was angry or upset. To me, she was a saint.

When she was killed, I realized she was a saint to many.

She did not live long, yet she left an undeniable mark on the world.

She was a butterfly.

Butterflies do not stay with us long, but their beauty and actions are never forgotten.

She taught me the most important lesson: be a butterfly: “Your time may be short, but your touch can last forever.”.

“Thank you for reading these quiet thoughts.”
