Do butterflies realize their beauty, The wonderful way in which they fly, Or do they compare themselves to every insect Wondering if they should hide their colorful wings with dye. Do they admire their wing’s softness Their calming patterns, soft and light Or do they think there’s something wrong with them If there's something faulty with their size Do they hate carrying the weight of those stunning patterned wings Do they ask themselves why they don't look the same Or do they realize it is because they're queens. Do they recognize they have nothing to be jealous of. That they’re special and unique Those wings are part of who they are And without them, they would just be weak. Do butterflies realize their wings’ beauty And know they need them to reach the sky Because without them they would be incomplete And would remain “butter” without “fly”.

I wonder....
I would trust him with my life. I have never met him, he doesn't know my name. Yet he does the same.

Trust
They say "you're one-in-a-million." but when you think about it, there really is someone that's exactly like you. They know how you feel. A lot of people feel like they can't go on, because something terrible has happened to them; a lot of people cut themselves wide open because they think they're not good enough. Because they want to feel; A lot of people stand in front of the bathroom mirror, lift their shirt up, and pinch the "fat" that is not there; they're blind to see that their body is already nothing but bone; A lot of people know what it's like to feel the way you do. Choose to feel the opposite.
