Awareness of the Soul
Saturday, December 17th, 2005Living in the moment. It’s the best way for me to live. Since I don’t even know if there will be another moment for me, I may as well enjoy those that I have right now. So, right now, in this moment, there is peace.
Butterflies are not only like flowers that fly in the sky. They are spiritual creatures of beauty and grace. They are a symbol of freedom, renewal, and rebirth. In Greek Mythology, butterfly means soul and Psyche. Butterflies have been a part of my spiritual journey for the past 11 years, but, I wasn’t aware of this until a year ago. I’ve always believed that I had a soul. I just never knew what was the purpose of her existence.
God has subtle ways of getting our attention. He will keep bringing things, people, situations into our lives until we finally open our eyes. Some never do and that’s their choice, but, I am one who became more aware of my soul when, everywhere I went and everywhere my daughter went, butterflies appeared. This wasn’t only in the Spring or Summer months. This also happened in the coldest time of Winter.
I had begun paying attention, but it was when my daughter told me about her seeing them that I just knew that it had to be spiritual. I felt it deep inside of me. So, I began doing research on the spiritual side of these magnificant creatures.
I’ve never seen this website until today, but, there is still much I don’t know about butterflies. I just know that when they came into my life I became aware of my soul. Thus the name, Soulfulwriter. The Butterfly Website, really helped me to understand the spirituality of butterflies.
