Many years ago an apprentice merchant named Takahama fell hopelessly in lovewith a woman named Akiko. They became engaged, but, tragically, Akiko diedbefore they could be wed.

For 50 years Takahama visited Akiko’s grave every day with a single purewhite rose. One day, Takahama fell so ill he could not go outside. Fearing hemay die, his sister and niece came to care for him. While he lay there, unableto move, a butterfly of the purest white landed gently on his pillow. Annoyed,Takahama’s niece tried to shoo the butterfly, but it would not stray from thepillow of the dying man.

As Takahama’s final breath left his body, so the butterfly flew to thegrave of Akiko and disappeared. White butterflies are believed to be thevisiting souls of loved ones. Worried that Takahama had not visited her gravethat day; Akiko looked over him and did not leave until his soul hadjoined hers.
