The butterfly

I read a book and in it there was a story that i wanted to share with you all here , for all us struggling codies this little story is on my mind alot

a man walking through the woods came upon a butterfly cocoon , upon further inspection the man saw the butterfly inside the cocoon stuggling to free itself, he watched for a while entranced but soon it was obvious the little butterfly was really struggling and having a hard time trying to break free, well the man just couldnt sit there and let that happen, so he helped the poor fellow using his pocket knife to set him free, the man all happy couldnt wait to see the butterfly fly off , the butterly tried opening its wings but they would not open fully and were not strong enough to take the butterly away and so the butterly sadly fell to the ground leaving the man wondering what went wrong, little did the man know that the struggle the butterly was making inside the cocoon was actually helping strenghten the butterflies wings so that when the time came it would be strong enough to free itself and fly off. Makes you think ....hope your all well
