Life Struggles
A man found a cocoon
of an emperor moth. He took it home so that he could watch the moth come out of
the cocoon. On the day a small opening appeared he sat and watched the moth for
several hours as the moth struggled to force the body through that little hole.
Then it seemed to
stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could
and it could go no further. It just seemed to be stuck. Then the man, in his
kindness, decided to help the moth, so he took a pair of scissors and snipped
off the remaining bit of the cocoon. The moth then emerged easily. But it had a
swollen body and small, shriveled wings. The man continued to watch the moth
because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to
be able to support the body, which would contract in time.
Neither happened! In
fact, the little moth spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen
body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly. What the man in his
kindness and haste did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the
struggle required for the moth to get through the tiny opening was the way of
forcing fluid from the body into its wings, so that it could be ready for
flight once it achieved it’s freedom from the cocoon. Freedom and flight would
only come after the struggle. By depriving the moth of the struggle, de
deprived the moth of health.
Sometimes struggles
are exactly what we need in our life. If we were to go through our life without
any obstacles, we would be crippled. We would not be as strong as what we could
have been. Give every opportunity a chance, leave no room for regrets.
Struggles are the training ground for a rich life.
