The Butterfly Story

The Butterfly’s Struggle for Beauty

I have always loved butterflies and once upon a time I collected butterflies in frames.

As my own personal life transformed during the years, I have now established a Transformational Platform and decided to use the butterfly as our logo as it truly resembles and reflects the Transformation so beautifully and this story is a version of why I compare the metamorphosis of

One day, a young woman sat in the garden, and noticed a cocoon hanging from a nearby branch.

Before long, a small opening appeared in the cocoon. The woman watched for several hours as the butterfly within struggled to free itself from the envelope in which it had recently been transformed.

Then, it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could and it could not go any further.

So the woman decided to help the butterfly: she took a pair of scissors and cut open the cocoon, from which the butterfly then emerged easily.

 

But, to the woman’s surprise, the butterfly didn’t fly away. Instead, it crawled out onto the branch and sat there. As the woman looked more closely, she noticed the butterfly’s body was withered, its wings were tiny and shriveled.

The woman continued to watch because she expected that, at any moment, the wings would open, enlarge, and expand sufficiently to support the butterfly’s body.

Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a withered body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly…

 

What the woman, in her kindness and her goodwill did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening, were 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.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life.

If God allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as we could be. Never been able to fly.

OUR STORY
