Struggle makes one self strong and successful

A man found a cocoon of a butterfly. One day a small opening appeared; man sat and watched the butterfly for several hours as it was struggling to force its body to come out of the little hole. Seeing its struggle man decided to help the butterfly.

So with scissors, he carefully snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon. This helped butterfly, easy to emerged out of it. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.

After few hours, man found butterfly not able to enlarge its wing and  expand to support the body. He understood his mistake and felt himself guilt for it. Thus butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with swollen body and shriveled wings.

Man wanted to help butterfly and forgot that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were nature's way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If nature allowed us to go through our life without any obstacles, it would cripple us. We would not be as strong as what we could have been. 

“No Pain No Gain” This is what our life means, Nothing can be achieved without burning our self with struggle and pain. Person who comes out of such struggle and pain is rewarded with all they wished for, so long.
