A little Monday butterfly inspiration…
“There is no beautifier of complexion, or form, or behavior, like the wish to scatter joy and not pain around us.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Be at peace and let your soul feed upon the sweetness of heavenly love, without which our hearts are lifeless and our life joyless.” St. Francis de Sales
grace, peace & butterfly beauty

Roses in the Rubble 
That is an amazing photo, I absolutely love it!
Thank you – while taking pics of the wildflowers blooming full blast @ the Norfolk Botanical Garden last weekend, this butterfly happened by for a few seconds. Click, click! Cheers! 💐🦋💐
Did you take the pix? So beautiful!!
Thanks, Nora. Yes, I took pics last weekend @ the Norfolk Botanical Garden (actually all pics here @ Roses in the Rubble are mine unless credited otherwise.) Years ago I made cards out of flower pics, but now share them here, LoL!💐☀️🦋☀️💐
Beautiful! Butterflies are just splendid!
Thank you, Brother Craig. As a butterfly groupie it was a real blessing seeing so many beautiful ones @ the Norfolk Botanical Garden last weekend! 💐🦋💐
sounds amazing!

So beautiful, Virginia — and awesome camera capture!!
‘Twas a blessing, Debbie, to find such a lovely fluttering butterfly matching the wildflower patch @ the Botanical Gardens!👀 🌼🦋🌼👀
I love a botanical garden — so many interesting plants, trees, water, and critters to see!
The Norfolk Botanical Garden is the largest in our state- & that’s saying something since Lewis Ginter in Richmond is HUGE. It’s also the only one in America to feature canal boat tours — totally cool! ☀️🌸☀️
this is awesome! thanks for sharing.
If you have a chance, please check out my music/art blog!
It’d mean a lot!

Scatter joy…spread love…be at peace. Love the message. Beautiful picture!
Something to aspire to – fluttering about scattering joy, love & peace vs. trampling others with anger & denigration. ☀️🦋☀️🌸🦋🌸
Yea I love to see butterflies any where I can gorgeous flowers too. We have a butterfly garden but don’t see many monarchs. Beautiful picture. Thank you. Love ❤️ J
All sorts of wildflowers were in full bloom @ the Botanical Garden (along with roses where this rose lover spent oodles of time!) Such a treat to see beautiful butterflies, too! 🌸☀️🦋☀️🌸
Heavenly love flutters orange, white and black wings of wonder. 🧡
Amen, as a butterfly groupie I so enjoy seeing “wings of wonder” – heavenly love fluttering with grandeur! Blessings!! 🌸🌟🦋🌟🌸
