After looking up the symbolic meaning of butterflies and their coonecton to the soul and release from the tomb of cocooning etc and with a general view to them being symbolic for reincarnation...Iam brought down to earth by your story and its earthly reality. PERHAPS A BUTTERFLY, EVEN IF REBORN HAS THE POTENTIAL TO DO BE frightful. I'M SORRY for your experience. But you made me see butterflies in a truer light. <strong>jb says</strong>: Hi Sophie.

Or even Ben Okri now I think about it. Or Neil Gaiman even. Anyway, you get the idea. I like it. <strong>jb says</strong>: Praise indeed, Jim. You made my day. Flattery will get you everywhere.
