This oriental legend of the blue butterfly tells that many years ago, a man was a widower and had to take care of his two daughters.
Both girls were very curious, intelligent and always eager to learn, constantly asking their father questions to quench their thirst for knowledge, sometimes their father could answer wisely, but in many cases their daughters’ questions prevented them from giving them a correct answer or convincing answer.
- Seeing the discomfort of the two girls.
- He decided to send them on vacation to socialize and learn from a sage.
- Who lived on top of a hill.
- The sage was able to answer all the questions the girls asked him.
- Without even hesitation.
However, the two sisters decided to catch the sage to measure his wisdom. One night, the two began to develop a plan: ask the sage a question he could not answer.
What question could we ask him that he could not answer?Did the younger sister ask the older sister.
? Wait here, am I going to show you again, ” said the eldest
The older sister came off the hill and returned after an hour, her apron was closed like a coat, hiding something.
? What’s going on here? ? The little sister asked.
The older sister put her hand on the apron and showed the girl a beautiful blue butterfly.
? Wonderful! What are you going to do with it?
? This will be our weapon to ask the master the question of the trap, we’re going to catch him and I’m going to hide that butterfly in my hand, then I’ll ask the sage if the butterfly in my hand is dead or alive. If he says he’s alive, I’ll shake his hand and kill him. If you say you’re dead, I’ll let you go. So whatever your answer, your answer will always be incorrect.
Accepting the big sister’s proposal, the girls went looking for the sage.
Master, did you tell us if the butterfly in my hand is alive or dead?
The sage answered with a mischievous smile, “It’s up to you, it’s in your hands. “
Our present and future are exclusively in our hands, we must never blame anyone if something fails, if we lose something or win, we are solely responsible.
The blue butterfly represents our lives. It’s up to you to create the life you want.
