BUTTERFLY DREAMING in
AUSTRALIA
there were two sisters born.....twins ... but their facial features were deformed and their mother was told to keep them out of sight from the tribe as they were too ugly to look upon....as they grew their torment increased...they were given chores to do apart from the other women.........they were never allowed to join in the womens circle of activity and chatter....they had to eat their meals apart from the tribe with their backs turned....and the children were afraid of them....
they only had their mother to talk to ...she loved them and could see their beauty from within..but she had to obey the tribe......and when she died they were alone...
the tribe continued to feed them the scraps because they were the makers of the best nectar.. their mother had shown them how to gather the flowers to make a sweet nectar drink....they became very adept at it...the tribe had never tasted nectar drink so sweet
their pain was great and they cried for their mothers soft and loving gaze....
the great- spirit father felt their sorrow and looked upon them with kindness ... he changed them into beautiful butterflies
when the tribe saw these new creatures they were amazed by their beauty and tried to follow them so they could look at at them more closely...
but the sisters would not let the tribe gaze upon them and would fly away.....for they would not look upon their deformaties they don't deserve to look upon their perfection and beauty
even today as soon as you look at a butterfly it will fly away....sometimes though they will let you gaze upon their beauty for a brief moment......
