GODs Greatness. No Charge.

I'm amazed at just how quickly the little caterpillar (found by my GODnephew last week) has morphed into a beautiful butterfly. My GODsister posted a picture of "it" on Facebook yesterday. I went to see the miraculous little "thing" this morning.

They've named the butterfly "Butterfree." We all are so honored being able to witness one of GODs creatures transform from a garden bug into an insect with flying wings. The last time I remember seeing "something" like "this" was during my grade school years for a classroom project.

At an old job I did have a coworker who ordered caterpillars from a website online. She was very into nature and found it so fascinating, that she would simply purchase (readily available) access to some seemingly natural experiences. We all have our quirks...

Today, I'm thinking about how society and different organizations charge money for some experiences that we can all have access to for free. A couple of years ago, I took my daughters to the Natural History Museum to see various types of butterflies inside their seasonal butterfly exhibit. Our visit for my little family of three costed nearly $20.

The pricing at the museum was fair for the experience. It's quite unlikely that many of us will be in an environment where there are so many different butterfly species around at one given time. I just think many of us forget that we too, can create renditions of a natural atmosphere...
