STORY : BUTTERFLY PAGES 1-12 30MIN
A man find a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appear. He watches the butterfly for several hours as it struggle to force its body through that little hole. Then it seem to stop making any progress. It appear as if it has get as far as it can and it can go no further.So the man decide to help the butterfly. He take a pair of scissors and snip off the remaining bit of the cocoon.
Then the butterfly emerge easily. But it has a swollen body and small shriveled wings.
The man continue to watch the butterfly because he expects that at any moment the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body which will contract in time.
Neither happen, in fact the butterfly spend the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never be able to fly.
What the man in his kindness and haste don't understand is that the restricting cocoon and the struggle require for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were God way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it will be ready for flight once it achieve its freedom from the cocoon.
Mind, I am enjoying reading your blog. I like it the most when you make connections to what you are reading. You don't have to summarize everything you have read, just tell us what you think of it.
ReplyDeleteAlso, it seems like everything you read is about 10 pages long. Do you have any longer books? Maybe a book that will take you a few days or weeks to read? Try to challenge yourself with a longer book.
