Flying beauties
Butterflies. In my opinion those little insects are one of the most beautiful and mysterious creatures that inhabit our planet. Those magical living beings delight people with marvelous appearance, charm and grace. Butterflies are an important part of the nature. Those pretty creatures pollinate flowers but also they engage in sowing the seeds that has a positive influence over environment. Colourful wings are the biggest triumps of those 'flying beauties'. One of the wings is an ideal mirror image of the other. I guess not all of you are aware that the flutter of butterflies wings can cause a hurricane. It is deeply connected with chaos theory. There is a phenomenon called the butterfly effect, the sensitive dependence on initial conditions in which a small change in one state of a deterministic nonlinear system can result in large differences in a later state. The butterfly effect has become a popular motif for a lot of books, movies and recently for a lot of games like Life is strange, Until down or Resident evil.

Butterflies always make me think of how beauty determines our fate. I think we are less likely to harm a butterfly than any other insect just because of its beauty. Most bugs are seen as a nuisance and something to get rid of, except for butterflies. It seems we treat beautiful people in a similar, privileged way. Do you agree? :)
ReplyDeleteI must admit that this is such a good remark :) It is believed that beautiful people have a better life but there are examples when people with a pretty face are considered to have a poor personality, the beauty itself is sometimes associated with stupidity and vanity. I think that the way we treat beautiful people depends mostly on our personal point of view.
