I know my profile picture is strange, but I saw this and it reminded me of many things.  First and foremost, the beauty of life in the midst of all the deaths we have witnessed world wide. Secondly, just as the fine silk threads woven so intricately to sustain a living creature safely, I immediately thought of new beginnings and peace.  The pure gold silk "ribbon" is simply the delicate threads that hold all humanity together as one. We all must look beyond the surface to understand we are all the same. Just as the butterfly, there are so many differences in each species (for humans, the human race) yet, they are all beautiful and yet the same on the inside. Prayers for peace and love
