Butterflies: The change from caterpillar though to the chrysalis and emergence as a butterfly is the greatest change in the animal world. It symbolises significant change in the course of one’s life, personality or way of thinking.
Putting them together brings us on an upwards journey of change and transformation, isn't that what we all strive for?
Remember that 'Social Media Sandwich' I joined up with World Market for to serve up a day of Social Media Fun on Instagram, Twitter, Facebook and more? Read more HERE if you forgot, well that event became an annual event and it's BAAAaaaCCCkk! :-)
