the beautiful butterflies of your life
will return - or not - as life intends.

to put the past in the past where it belongs.
However, sometimes a simple symbolic act can help immeasurably
to grant ourselves freedom from the past.

to receiving whatever life throws at us -
with Gratitude. Have NO Expectations of life.
