It really is all in how you look at it

Apparently that giant tree that shades my driveway had become a Butterfly Sanctuary. For days my car would be covered with twenty or so caterpillars trying to get to that tree. As I drove my son to school they would fly off into the wind miles away from the sanctuary. As I looked up into the tree I could see every stage of a caterpillar cycle. With so many caterpillars crawling about and so many cocoons tightly stuck to the branches I almost wanted to run away. Just then I could see the flutter of butterfly wings still hovering under the shade of the tree. The bright vivid colors were mesmerizing and the cocoons were invisible turning my caterpillar invasion into a peaceful relaxing sanctuary to enjoy. Turns out it really is all in how you look at it.
