As he observed, he noticed that the butterfly was struggling to escape from its cocoon. Out of the kindness of his heart, he decided to help the butterfly, so he cut the hole in the cocoon with a pair of scissors, making it big enough for the young butterfly to escape.
When he cut open the cocoon, the butterfly was freed but it suddenly fell to the ground and eventually died. The butterfly needs fully developed wings in order to fly; wings that would be created by the process of struggling to break open the cocoon. This little boy really wanted to help; however, the difficulty that he was “rescuing” the butterfly from was necessary to make it strong enough to fly.
In our daily lives, results are valued more than the process to achieve them. Avoiding difficult processes may seem easier; however, in the long run, although our bodies mature, our hearts will remain weak. Especially in this generation, people do not want ANY struggles. The first several years of one’s life should expose them to some degree of difficulty.
Overcoming these difficulties will develop strong hearts as they mature into adulthood. Strong hearts are necessary to meet and overcome the challenges of life. THIS, is what creates more responsible and prudent people.
What difficulty are you running away from now? Did you consider if this PROCESS is necessary?[/text_output][share title=”Share this Post” facebook=”true” twitter=”true” google_plus=”true” linkedin=”true” pinterest=”true” reddit=”true” email=”true” id=”” class=”” style=””][/vc_column][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/3″][ultimate_heading main_heading=”Recent Posts” alignment=”left” main_heading_font_size=”desktop:20px;” main_heading_font_family=”font_family:Oswald|font_call:Oswald”][/ultimate_heading][recent_posts type=”post” count=”4″ orientation=”vertical” fade=”true” offset=”” category=”” id=”” class=”” style=””][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row padding_top=”0px” padding_bottom=”0px”][vc_column fade_animation_offset=”45px” width=”1/1″][vc_raw_html]JTNDc3R5bGUlM0UlMEEuZW50cnktdGh1bWIlMjBpbWclMjAlN0IlMEElMjAlMjAlMjAlMjBtYXgtaGVpZ2h0JTNBJTIwNDAwcHglM0IlMEElN0QlMEElMEEucG9zdC1jb250ZW50JTIwJTdCJTBBJTIwJTIwJTIwJTIwdGV4dC1hbGlnbiUzQSUyMGp1c3RpZnklM0IlMEElMjAlMjAlMjAlMjB0ZXh0LWp1c3RpZnklM0ElMjBpbnRlci13b3JkJTNCJTBBJTdEJTBBJTNDJTJGc3R5bGUlM0U=[/vc_raw_html][/vc_column][/vc_row]
