A lovely story...

'Once a teacher brought a cocoon in a classroom filled with young children. The teacher kept that cocoon on the table and asked the children to watch the butterfly emerge out of the cocoon and she left the class for some work. Children watched the cocoon shake a bit... The butterfly was about to emerge...

It shook some more. The children were bit concerned. One child got up from his seat and helped the butterfly emerge from its cocoon by tearing open the cocoon. The butterfly came out of its cocoon. The weather was bright and sunny. The butterfly flapped its wings and it died after sometime. The children were shocked.

Later the teacher came in the class and saw the dead butterfly on her table. She asked the children what had happend. When the children narrated what had happend the teacher thus said, "You need to struggle a bit in your life to become stronger, to live."'


This was a story narranted to me and my college mates in my CAD class by our lecturer. People were too busy to listen to the lecturer.
I loved it so much that I blogged it down, in my words
What he ment to say was, not to take life easy. And not to expect it to be easy. We have to struggle and work hard to achieve success. Everything will look beautiful later... Just like that colourful butterfly which emerges out of its cocoon after struggling to get out.
