*** Took it@ fren's blog***
A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared, he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it struggled to force its body through the little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and could go no further. Out of kindness, the man decided to help the butterfly and he took a pair of scissors to snipe the remaining bit of the cocoon.
The butterfly then emerged easily after the help by the man but something was strange. The butterfly appeared to have a swollen body and shriveled wings. However the man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to support the body, which would also may contract in time.
Neither of the two situation happened.
In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and deformed wings. It was never able to fly. What the man in his kindness and haste did not understand, was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the small opening of the cocoon are God`s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.
After reading the story, i sat down to gather my thoughts and realise the moral of the story that the author was trying to express.
This is what my fren's feel and I agreed what he say~ :
Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allows us to go through all our life without any obstacles, he will have cripple us. We wouldn't be as strong as what we could have been. Not only that, we could never fly.
A lot of times we have troubles, obstacles and some encountered set-back in their life. It is the strength to overcome these problems, then we learn to grow and get enlighten. I hope after reading this, your life will not be the butterfly, spending the rest of your life crawling around with a swollen body and deformed wings, never be able to fly.
