The Butterfly Effect

dsc_0201-500×295

“An intriguing entomological experiment shows that a male butterfly will ignore a living female butterfly of his own species in favor of a painted cardboard one,
if the cardboard one is big.
Nearby, the real, living female butterfly opens and closes her wings in vain.”
~ Annie Dillard, The Writing Life

Today, keep an eye on the subtle, quieter things that are the most real.

Not just the things that are bigger, flashier, splashier than you are.

The real things are nearby, stretching their wings, waiting for you to notice.
