The last most beautiful (monarch butterfly)

moment - what's yours? We spend a lot of time and energy wallowing through the muck here at DK, witnessing and discussing acts of oppression and incompetence. The defilements are inexhaustible. I feel it's also important to celebrate the moments of beauty and pleasure, because we're never going to get to a place where everything has been resolved to everyone's satisfaction. Conflict is an essential and intrinsic part of the human experience, but so is pleasure.

My last most beautiful moment was watching a monarch butterfly feast on swamp milkweed blossoms, in a garden that I'd helped to plant.
