A few years ago, my husband and I were on an island for a long weekend with our two daughters. As we went back and wondered what to do next, our girls jumped in and told us what they wanted to do. “We want to go to the butterfly museum, ” said Ariela and Eliana.
As soon as we walked into the main area of the museum, we saw thousands of beautiful butterflies with their colorful wings. My girls jumped up and down happily. I turned to our museum tour guide and asked, “How long do butterflies live？” She said, “About ten days. ” “What can butterflies do in ten days？” I asked.
The guide stopped, looked at me, and said, “They make the world a more beautiful place. ”
“Wow, ” I said, “I never thought about butterflies like that. Thank you. ” After we said goodbye, I couldn't stop thinking about what the guide had said. She was right. We all have something to offer to the world with the time we have. When we give attention to taking care of each other each day, we can make a difference.
Try to do something nice for your family, friends, and neighbors. Like a butterfly, you have your own way of making the world a little better for everyone.
