Happiness is Like a Butterfly.....

The more you chase it, the more it eludes you.
But if you turn your attention to other things,
It comes and sits softly on your shoulder.
- Henry David Thoreau

For me today I found happiness in a 50 mile bike ride, a test run for my holiday next week. I loaded my bike with full camping kit and enough water for two days. Just me, the cycle paths and the beauty of the Korean countryside, I loved it. It was so hot and so humid that by the time I took a break at the half way point I looked like I'd just stepped out of the shower! Sitting eating some food and trying my best to rehydrate I was surrounded by butterflies, not the most beautiful ones you'll ever see but they danced like the best of them and took rests on my bike.
