One Of Life's Great Lessons.

"Listen," said the golden winged butterfly, as he landed atop a red rose. "For this is one of life's great lessons."

"Live your life with love, beauty and forgiveness," he whispered to me, "And you will have all of life's treasures."

"To do less," added the butterfly, "Is just to exist."

Then without speaking another word, the butterfly softly fluttered its wings and lifted by the gentle breeze, it flew away as mysteriously as it had arrived.
