Here’s my all-time fave butterfly quote (for the wood and leather kids’ book that I wood-burned, wrote, and illustrated in the early days of my writing career):

“Happiness is like a butterfly; the more you chase it, the more it will elude you, but if you turn your attention to other things, it will come and sit softly on your shoulder."
— Henry David Thoreau

Have a wonderful day,

🦋 wordstroken
— here, sitting softly on the shoulders of our awesome and loving DU family
