butterfly

According to an American Indian Legend,
if anyone desires a wish to come true
they must first capture a butterfly
and whisper that wish to it.

Since a butterfly can make no sound,
the butterfly can not reveal
the wish to anyone but the
Great Spirit who hears and sees all.

In gratitude for giving the beautiful butterfly its freedom,
the Great Spirit always grants the wish.

So, according to legend, by making a wish
and giving the butterfly its freedom,

the wish will be taken to the heavens and be granted
