Uplifting quote for hard times

Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.”   

- Proverb

Looking at this picture we may think a butterfly is so beautiful, however; we rarely think about the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.

Before it became a butterfly, it was a caterpillar that lived in a small case called cocoon; a very narrow case where it had to spend a very long time live in there. So many time it tried so hard to get away from that uncomfortable place but it still couldn't because it wasn't strong enough to force itself to get out of a hard cocoon.

It had to be patient and just kept waiting until it was strong enough so that it could manage to get out of a cocoon. At that waiting time, it was very uncomfortable, intolerance, and it thought the world was going to over. However, it had no choice but only had to face and overcome the difficulties.
