thank you for re-posting this, petunia. it does sort of have a sad ending...but zorah's right...it seems to help a bit with the 'whys' of it all. ((((((((petunia)))))))))
personally, i don't think any of us flopped out wet/brown/ugly/dead. i think that despite the prying open of our cocoons we managed to survive and become beautiful, each unique like butterflies (and that includes you, petunia

)
(((((((((((((((all of us here)))))))))))))))))
