We may speak of or feel that we know about death but until we truly contemplate, approach and move into death, what do we know? This is a tale about looking into the eye of a tortoise shell butterfly while it lay dying on the shrine .  When its frail antennae reached up towards us at the sound of our voices, we felt at one even with this tiniest of creatures - who also wanted only to be loved.
