We console each other that we have butterflies in the making.
When they were young, they were caterpillars. Very hungry caterpillars.
But right now, they’re in their pupa stage, transformed into a chrysalis, set apart.
The hope is that one day, they will re-emerge as beautiful butterflies, graceful in flight and full of delight.
One day, if the Most Merciful wills, this strange metamorphosis will be complete, and we will stand in awe at what our caterpillars have become.
