Butterflies

Many ponies question why I have a cutie mark of butterflies since I love and care for all woodland creatures. Do I like butterflies more than any other animal? The answer is no; love doesn't work that way. The reason butterflies embellish my flank is much more deeper than a love for animals, big and small. When I see a butterfly, I remember that they are delicate, swaying in the slightest breeze. It reminds me of me when I was a filly. I could never stand up for myself. When they saved my life, they taught me even when anything can scare you -- push you around -- even somepony as delicate as me, can make a difference. Everything afterwards is just me finding the beauty in interacting with creatures who accept me for who I am. But it all stems from the very moment a cluster of butterflies saved my life, not only from the hard ground, but from myself.
