Chasing Butterflies

Wow, its been so long since my last post. Really missed the bug-bite... lol. This is my first post this year, yep, this year in which all the prophets and pastors are speaking good things of. 2012... I start by saying HAPPY NEW YEAR (C'mon, its still January so the year is still new).
After all the bruhaha from subsidy removal, life is picking up slowly and steadily. 2012 is indeed great and promising, despite all the bombings and careless destruction of boko ndi haram. lol.

This year, like I stated earlier began on a promising note for me, after all the pain and disillusionment of its predecessor, I made my resolutions, which even though I vowed to be to strictly comply with, I have broken a thousand times over.lol. One of my resolutions , which I am still hanging on to with clenched teeth and fists, is to be happy no matter what happens this year.

Some folks have described happiness using the delicate and fleeting imagery of the butterfly. I have heard them say that to be happy can be likened to an attempt to catch a butterfly, if you go after it, it flutters away and out of your reach but if you stand still, it will come and settle on your cute little nose. The though that occurred to me was that, 'ok, I wont run after the butterfly, what if it doesnt perch? or it perches like a good little buggie and then when i try to catch it off of my nose it flutters away again?'. Well, its justa thought...

Whether happiness is a butterfly or not, anyways, depends on the definer and the perspective from which such definition was arrived at. As for me... hmmmn, I'm clad in my dancing shoes...didnt ask you to see if clothes would be involved..lol...to dance any stress away and look on the bright side but if that happiness has decided to be a butterfly, chaiiiii! I would chase it with my insect zapper... and when it is adequately zapped, I will keep it, a butterfly afterall is a butterfly whether it is dead or alive...same thing goes for that elusive happiness... phewww, enough of my good-natured ramblings, people, the bottom line is ,be happy always, no matter what. Look on the bright side, dearies. May the best of 2012 be yours in Jesus name. Love y'all so much...

Oh Oh Oh, lest I forget, CHASE THAT BUTTERFLY...lol
