[The Tired Wings and the Full Heart]

"Too boring! There is a brighter red over there!" the Butterfly cried, abandoning the half-full lily. She skipped from garden to garden, always chasing a prettier petal on the next hill. She saw a thousand colors but never stopped long enough to taste any of them. Nearby, the Bee sat still on a single, plain clover, her head buried deep in its heart, ignoring the world.

By sunset, the Butterfly was shivering and hungry, her wings exhausted from the endless search for "better." She had seen the whole forest but had an empty stomach. The Bee flew home heavy and full, carrying the sweetness of the one flower she had truly finished. Searching for everything often leads to finding nothing.
‘One deep well is better than a thousand shallow puddles.’
