Happiness is like a butterfly
The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.
But if you happen to sit still and let things be, it will likely come and land on your shoulder.
***
How can I become a butterfly?
You have to want to fly so bad, you're willing to give up being a caterpillar.

I read these quotes on my sisters blog yesterday and fell in love. I put them in a note on my phone so I can always have them with me.
I know that things can be hard and happiness can seem so far away. But when we stop and enjoy the small things, we will see happiness is all around us. And sometimes it takes giving up something we love- to find out what it's like to fly.

And if you appreciate dance in any way, you'll love these. My two new favorite dances.

I didn't realize you two are sisters! You do look alike :)
I love those quotes about the butterfly. It's so true - yet so hard to remember! To just sit still, enjoy the moments, and happiness suddenly seems to be overflowing.
Such a great reminder. Thank you, Gentri!
Beautiful quote!
I love SYTYCD!!! My own dancing days are over (since I was a chicken in the ballet concert... yeh!) but I still appreciate good dancers.

I'm loving SYTYCD this season. I'm not a dancer, and have never been interested in the show before, but I haven't missed a minute this season!
the second dance was my FAVORITE! SO CUTE!
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh I love this season so much already!!! I LOVE those dances too! Goosebumps and bootyshakin' every stinkin' time.
I love SYTYCD... but maybe it's because I love Pasha :)
Beautiful quotes, thanks for posting them (and thanks to your sis too!)

Those dances are amazing! The second one is so cool. I'm so upset they stopped the Australia version after only 3 seasons :(
