According to the eastern legend of the blue butterfly, a man was widowed and left in charge of his two daughters. The girls were very curious, intelligent and always eager to learn. They constantly besieged their father with questions. However, he could never give his daughters a good answer. Seeing the restlessness of the two girls, he decided to send them to a boarding school in Switzerland. “The Swiss are very rich and intelligent,” he said to himself, “and I am a poor fool”. The girls started to do little things. The older one went out to the camp and caught a blue butterfly, wrapping it in her apron so that it wouldn’t escape. She then began to explain her Machiavellian plan to her sister. “Tomorrow, as I hold the blue butterfly in my hands, we will ask Dad if it is alive or dead. If he answers that she is alive, I will squeeze my hands and kill her. On the other hand, if he claims that it is dead, I will release it and it will fly free. This way, whatever his answer is, it will always be wrong, haha”. The next morning the girls, eager to make him fall into their trap, asked him the question. But the man smiled calmly and quietly and proceeded to answer: “it’s up to you, it’s in your hands”.
