Recte et Fideliter
Recte et Fideliter ("Upright and Faithful")
With grace, balance, and courage the majestic Rocky Mountain Goat
stands upright and faithful despite its precarious terrain.

"Glorious & Free"
Gloriosus et Liber (Glorious and Free)
...describes the butterfly. Have you ever watched a butterfly
emerge from its cocoon? Writhing, twisting, and squirming- slowly the
hideous bundle of legs and crinkled wings slide away from its woven cave.
But, before the butterfly can fly it must first struggle
to free itself from the confines of its cocoon.
Without that struggle, the butterfly would become crippled and unable to fly.
The squeezing through the tiny hole of the cocoon circulates vital fluids to its wings.
It is good to remember that it is our nature to overcome challenges
-- that it is an act of love to allow others their right to struggle
and to find their way from their cocoons.
Who could better appreciate the beauty of a rainbow,
than one who had to first grapple in the dark?
The butterfly; glorious and free.
