Re: Butterflies for Good Luck
Thats fantastic, I had a friend take his own life last year and I have been seeing Cardinals everywhere ever since, especially one that I see every morning when I take the dog for a walk. I like to think it is Jon walking with me.

Re: Butterflies for Good Luck
They are also a sign of sweat. Visitors to the tropics are often surprised by the number of butterflies and moths aggregating on muddy banks of rivers, mud puddles and, this usually comes as a surprise, animal dung. Many butterflies are also attracted to human skin and suck sweat or blood from cuts with their proboscis. They love wet, sweaty socks and shoes, and absolutely adore the stuff that seeps out latrines. We may delude ourselves that all butterflies prefer sweet nectar of flowers, but in fact many would rather gorge on the liquid portion of fresh feces. |
