The Legend of The Legends…
It is said that once, long ago, two very unlikely girls became friends…
One was a Christian, the other a Pagan.
One a caterpillar, longing to be a butterfly…The other a Dragon, not yet strong enough to fly…
Separated by thousands of miles, their paths would never be likely to cross…
Then, as fate so often does, the unlikely happened…
The two began talking, about menial things at first, but soon a bond began to form…
So many hurts, so many disappointments, so many let downs…both had suffered…
The Dragon taught the Caterpillar to love herself, and by doing so began to realize that she too had wings to grow…
The two shared thoughts and ideas, laughs and tears…
The Caterpillar changed and grew, molting out of her old self and into a new, even more beautiful creature…
The Dragon started allowing herself to love others whole heartedly and to allow others to love her the same way…
The Caterpillar became a Butterfly and the Dragon’s heart warmed and her wings developed…
Now the Butterfly and the Dragon will one day be able to fly together, best friends, sisters in the sky despite their differences…
So, as a reminder of their unlikely friendship and of the encouragement and love that helped each of them to grow, the Butterfly gave the Dragon a momento named Legend and she saved one for herself…they are The Legends and they represent what true friendship means…looking into the future and realizing you will always have a friend to mend your wing or carry you through the skies when you are too weak to fly on your own…
