The butterfly is an ugly worm, with a pair of beautiful wings. The wings are God's gift to the worm to survive in the world, but it's so beautiful that it enchants everyone who sees it. They see the butterfly and appreciate its beauty. But it is infact the same ugly worm that people would have hated the most. Did the worm become supernatural when it transcended from being a worm to a butterfly?
No, it did not. But it went into a different level where, while it remained the same ugly worm within, it trusted God to give the gift of wings which helps it survive and enchant others.
When it was a worm eating away the leaves, it was an irritant destroying things in nature, but when it becomes a butterfly, it aids in pollination thereby spreading nature and life. It is a stark contrast, the two roles, yet so poignant and so life-like that its worth marvelling the creation of God.
The beautiful wings grew out of the ugly worm, but it did not hide the ugliness. It is just that wings were big and beautiful that no one really cared about the ugly part.
Does the butterfly ever think about its past and present? May be May not be.., I dont know. But it is so blissful to fly around enjoying every moment, bringing happiness to others without worrying about the past or future.
