{"quotes":[{"text":"Tony and Peg have two kids, Terry-Lynn and Harvey, both of whom are enrolled in so many extracurricular and afterschool clubs that they hardly ever see their parents. If Terry-Lynn is in Girl Guides, she doesn’t have to see Peg inviting the Purolator man in for “a cup of coffee”. If Harvey is in the anime drawing club, he doesn’t have to see Peg kissing Mr. Cooper from across the street, even if all the other neighbours secretly know what’s going on. Tony has no idea, all he knows is that Peg isn’t the same Peg he married back in 2003. All he knows is that she’s changed a great deal, and not for the better, like a beautiful butterfly regressing back into a devouring, ugly caterpillar in the span of only a couple of months.","author":"Rebecca McNutt","tags":["affair","afterschool","anime","beautiful","butterfly","caterpillar","change","cheater","children","coffee","drawing","extracurricular-activities","girl-scouts","homewrecker","kids","kiss","marriage","neighbours","parents","purolator","street","ugly"],"id":62,"author_id":"Rebecca+McNutt"},{"text":"Meditation is the process of transformation and beautification of soul from a leaf-eating caterpillar to a nectar-sipping butterfly.

Remember self love does not imply being selfish and just thinking about your own happiness. I believe it is an idea which revolves around acceptance of yourself as you are so that you can accept others as they are. It is a principle of loving your own being so that you are full of love and positivity. It is about coming to peace with your own self and letting go of your past wounds, it is about healing. Self Love is about becoming a butterfly from a caterpillar. It is about personal development, it is about an evolution. Self Love is about seeing yourself through your own eyes.","author":"Jasz Gill","tags":["butterfly","caterpillar","evolution","personal-development","romance","self","self-awareness","self-esteem","self-love","self-love","self-realization","self-worth"],"id":125291,"author_id":"Jasz+Gill"},{"text":"Love, the exotic bird, came and went.Heart forgot love.Joy, the majestic willow, wept and died.Mind forgot joy.Hope, the basement lamp, fell and broke.Soul forgot hope.Self, the anxious caterpillar, took flight and dropped.Self forgot self.You, my all, became all my reasons.Reasons left.You left.I never forgot.","author":"Kamand Kojouri","tags":["beloved","bird","break-up","breaking-up","caterpillar","desire","die","died","ex","exotic","forget","forgetting","forgot","heart","hope","joy","kamand","kamand-kojouri","kojouri","lamp","leave","left","love","love-poem","loved","lover","loves","loving","never","reason","relationship","remember","self","soul","union","unity","want","weep","willow"],"id":179652,"author_id":"Kamand+Kojouri"},{"text":"When I was just a cute little caterpillar, you loved me.
