Story story!!

Once upon a time, there lived a butterfly named Gracie. Gracie was Blue in colour, with a boasting wings so intense like a fallen pieces of the sky, she was really beautiful.

Gracie had a secret, an agonizing struggle. She was terrified of flying. Maybe she was afraid of heights who knows.

To a human, a butterfly’s flight looks so easy. To Gracie, it felt like a whole lot, like death calling.

Scientist has it that Because of the way butterfly wings are shaped, they don’t fly in straight lines.

Any time Gracie let go of a branch, her heart hammered. She felt like a leaf caught in a hurricane.

One afternoon, the wind was very heavy and Gracie was found clinging tightly to a passion flower leaf to avoid a passing breeze, Gracie was spotted by an old, battle scarred dragonfly named Alex. Alex was the ace pilot of the pond he could hover, fly backward, and dart at forty miles per hour with laser precision.

"Why the long face, Alex asked Gracie as he effortlessly flew up and down near Gracie.

"I am scared," Gracie responded, closing her wings" Look at you, You fly so effortlessly. When am here struggling to fly.

Alex gave a faint smile and responded, "My friend, don't confuse control with survival. Come with me. Let me teach you a lesson. Just look up."

Gracie reluctantly took flight, following after Alex but very calm observing the direction of the wind as she flew also watch how Alex controlled himself and they both landed on a riverbank.

From that day on, Gracie never feared the wind again. She realized that her flaw was actually her greatest superpower. She wasn't failing to fly straight; she was mastering the art of the flutter.

She thanked Alex for the great lesson and went her way practicing and rejoicing.
