She knows she is pretty, and dances from flower to flower, never stopping to wave goodbye. They whirl around each other, spiraling into the sky. She never has to worry if beauty is in the eyes of the beholder, for it is quite enough to be a butterfly. Strikingly beautiful.

I watched “Pretty in Pink” again last night. For like, the gazillionth time. In the movie, there are people who struggle with the labels they have been given/taken on for themselves. They fight with their own sense of honor and shame around wealth and poverty or about being alternative or "richies." Every little thing makes a difference. It matters where you live. It matters which door you walk out of at school. It seems so absurd on the surface, but if people are honest, these expectations, these barometers of honor and shame are real. In real life anyway. Like the movie, but different, right? There is a genius karaoke rendition of "Tenderness" by Otis Redding, offering another path and it shows how each character attempts to take that path in the end. Each tries a little compassion. It was a little bit fun extracting the message of the film. It's a reinterpretation of sorts.
Oh, yes. Anyone can be pretty in pink.
Where is the love?
Buried alive, deep inside my heart?
Where dreams live that I haven’t dreamt, and when I do, I shall never forget.

I am so misunderstood!!! Doesn't anybody speak kitty-cat?
All I have are my words, armed in my mind, written in pen, stand by stand. Oh, yes. Still by hand. It has a different feel. Altered not by keys, backspace, and delete, I write, erase, tear it to pieces and start all over again. And again.
It’s my way. I walk out to the deep end of the page and dive right in.

Thanks for the repost @pixresteemer! Much appreciated!
Yes, pretty ugly. Hahaha. 😂
Now I imagined a pink cat. Meow.
Well, I'll be the judge of that!
A pink cat!!?? Meow!! Thanks for stopping by!
But why the downvote though?
Oh no! That wasnt intentional! Sorry! Let me fix it!!
No problem. Sometimes accidents happen.
Have a good day. All the best.
Thank you! I cannot believe I did that!
This butterfly is a real beauty.
Thank you so much for your kind words! I hope you have a wonderful day!
I have a photograph of me...It shall not see the light of day, certainly not on the blockchain, but it punctuates your point.
[Not my finest moment, but it was a lot of fun...Mostly at my expense. 😆]
Oh, I would pay good money to see that. I am sure most people would. Well, you have just planted a seed and I am sure the thought will grow over time! LOL I am sure that you are pretty in pink. :))
Thank you so much for the kind words you always leave me. Good morning to you!
As many have!
I'm not afraid of pink, it's just a colour and doesn't indicate anything at all about me should I wear it, which I don't often.
The item referred to in my previous comment...Well, it was more what it was than the colour to be honest, although it was pink. It shall remain a blockchain mystery. :)
Have a good evening, and you're welcome for the kind words. I prefer to give them as the alternative isn't so nice.
Well, you know I like a good mystery and using my imagination. I am good with that. :)) Have a great day, Galen! @galenkp
You are so pretty as wherever you are @dswigle💖
:) Thank you so much. I hope you are having a great day!
I love pink color, it's one of my favorite color.I know u sure look good in pink😍😍
Thank you so much for your kind words and it is one of my favorite colors. Well, they all are!I don't know if I look good, but, I do like to wear it. :)
The butterfly is amazing and I am partial to pink flowers!
Where do you get the words, my dearest?
They are just lovely, @dswigle!
Luv ya!!!
Really? How cool! Pink is always a favorite with people, so soft and lovely, it begs to be loved.
Which ones are you talking about? The poetry was cited and those that are not are mine. Any in particular? You are always so sweet and I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Love you too!
Do not miss my posting for "always a flower" luv!!!
Sorry. I won't! I have had two days of minimum time online. I am playing catch-up this afternoon. Thanks!
It's always pretty in pink. I love pink and oh those chrysanthemums looks stunning. I really have no clue how to speak kitty but I speak doggie.
Hehe! You cannot speak kitty? :)) Oh, to speak doggie is just as fascinating! Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!
Nice nature photography.
Thank you so much @kamrunnahar ! Always such nice words from you!
I dont think I have seen that movie. However I may well have. The upside of being forgetful is no matter which movie is on, even an overly played out one, it is usually new to me lol.
I know I have many dreams, many that I wish to realize. Would it be possible to get merely another 100 years or so, I believe I could experience many of them. Life goes by so fast.
I don't think you have. We talked about it once and you said you would try to watch it. It's been busy, you know. COVID and all that you had to do then. :)
I have been trying to buy time all over the blockchain, so if you find some, could you let me know?
Yes well I think of it as a girl movie and I am waiting for getting all my girl besties over...lol as if :D
Oh you know they fawn over you! Make some popcorn. Who could resist.
Personally I was more a 16 candles guy 🎂
