How does one become a butterfly?" she asked. "You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar."

The caterpillar does all the work but the butterfly gets all the publicity. Since my father’s death, I find myself getting interested with butterflies coz every time I’ll go to sleep I could see it in my room’s wall. Sometimes it’s small, sometimes big and there was a time it’s as big as my palm. Some people say butterflies signify spirit of our loved ones. I think it’s my father’s spirit inside that butterfly telling me he’s still there watching his family and telling… go on with life.

Alibangbang

Indi ang ulud nga nagauribay kang pakpak,
Kundi ang pakpak nga de kolor
