A man found a cocoon of a butterfly . one  day, a small opening appeared . he sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as struggled to squeeze it's body through the tiny hole then it stopped, as if it counld'nt go further. so the men decided to help the butterfly. he took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remainig bits of coccoon . the butterfly emerged easily but it has a swollen body and shriveld wings . the man continued to watch it' expecting that any minute the wings the man continued to watch it' expecting that any minute the wings would enlarge and expand enough to support the body, neither happened!in fact the butterfly spent the rest of it's life crawaling around. it was never able to fly. what the man is his and haste did not understand : the restricting coccoon and the struggle required by the butterfly to get though the opening was a way of forcing the fluid from the body into the wings so that it would be ready for flight once that was achieved.

sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. going through life with no obstacles would cripple us. we will be as strong as we could have been as we would never fly.
