There's a common posy for people who are brave and that is
He/she is a lion or brave as lion.
But is lion really brave?
What makes a lion brave?
His sharp fangs or claws, his muscular strength, speed or his predatory nature.
Or
The fact that he is a ferocious beast and is able to kill other animals including humans.
Lions are brave because of the fear instilled in other animals..
In my opinion
Butterflies are braver than the lion.
How?

Butterflies are harmless beautiful creatures, they don't command you with fear but still rule your heart with their beauty.
They give back to nature by pollinating flowers and thus aid in the cycle of life.

But how are they brave?

They are brave because they carry such delicate wings, fragile body, no defence mechanism but still they don't fear to come into our vicinity, despite knowing that some mischievous humans would try to catch them and harm them.

Bravery is not in being strong and ferocious, bravery lies in being kind and empathetic over and over again even after one gets hurt or being used.

Preserving your core nature and not changing it because of the cruel world, takes courage.
Being kind and emotional is not weakness it takes bravery to keep a good heart in this world where everyone is trying to rule with fear and deceit.
If you possess a heart like that, then my friend you are the bravest of them all and i am very proud of you.


Butterflies fascinates me a lot, my day starts with gazing at a bunch of butterflies in my neighborhood so my opinion might be biased🦋🦋.
But I would like to share it..

what's your take on this??
