Certainly, individuals possess varied outlooks and interpretations of things, and this diversity is what makes each of us distinct from one another. But honestly, butterflies are really beautiful just refrain from touching them because, despite their attractive wing colors, their bodies still retain the resemblance of caterpillars 😅.
I don't really like butterflies either because I know how the transform and as you say, they are beautiful in that phase but that's all. But no worries as you don't see them often in big cities 😀
Yes, I've noticed that there are not many butterflies around nowadays. I still remember when I was a child, there used to be many butterflies flying around, but now I rarely see them. It's sad because you can really feel that something has changed in today's time .
