A Brave Butterfly

Many years ago, a man took a morning walk in a mountain path for fresh air. He walked very slowly forward, but, suddenly a butterfly blocked his way by a flying signal of its body. He stopped and the butterfly disappeared. When he started to walk, the butterfly appeared again. For curiosity, the man checked the ground ahead of him and found a wounded butterfly lying helplessly on the ground. He now knew the situation and turned his walking way in another direction. The butterfly appeared no more.
From this small example that we can see even so small an insect as a butterfly, which still has a heart to protect its companion. But, of course, scientist will not spend time to study the life of butterfly.
We, human, are creature of wisdom, know how to protect ourselves as well as to our companion. We know how to get rid of dangerous things to keep ourself safe.
But, we are in many cases at a state neglecting to protect us. For example, when we get a sickness of cancer, we do not know how it comes, and know nothing of reason of getting it. Therefore, we should always watch unseen things which may hurt us without warning to us to protect our own as well as to others.
