Butterflies...
I feel butterflies in my stomach... Can I believe them? What if it's just me imagining things? What if I'm just being stupid? Like Marie Digby's Stupid For You?
I've no confidence in myself... I've never been so helpless.
Anyway, found some really interesting quotes about butterflies.
May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun
And find your shoulder to light on,
To bring you luck, happiness and riches
Today, tomorrow and beyond.
~Irish Blessing
What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the master calls a butterfly.

The flower a tethered butterfly.

Happiness is a butterfly, which when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you will sit down quietly, may alight upon you.
~Nathaniel Hawthorne
With the rose the butterfly's deep in love,
A thousand times hovering round;
But round himself, all tender like gold,
The sun's sweet ray is hovering found.
~Heinrich Heine, "New Spring"
"Just living is not enough," said the butterfly, "one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower." ~Hans Christian Anderson

The tulip and the butterfly
Appear in gayer coats than I:
Let me be dressed fine as I will,
Flies, worms, and flowers exceed me still.
~Isaac Watts

The Lord said, "Trust."
