The Caterpillar

A small caterpillar walked a day towards the sun. Near the road was a grasshopper.
- Where do you head? "He asked.
While walking, the caterpillar said,
"I had a dream last night I dreamed that from the tip of the great mountain I watched the entire valley. I liked what I saw in my dream and I decided to do it.
Surprised, the grasshopper said as his friend moved away:
- You must be crazy! How do you get to that place? You? A simple caterpillar? A stone is a mountain, a little pool a sea and any body of a barrier ...

But the worm was far away and not hear him, her tiny body is not stopped moving.
Suddenly he heard the voice of a beetle:
- Where do you head so hard?
Sweating, and the worm, said breathlessly:
- I had a dream and I want to do, climb that mountain and from there to contemplate our world.
The beetle could not stand the laughter, burst out laughing and then said:
- Not me, with legs as big, try to make something so ambitious.
And she was lying on the floor laughing while the caterpillar went his way, having already advanced a few centimeters.
Just as the spider, the mole and the frog our friend advised him to desist.
- You will not succeed again! He was told, but inside there was a momentum that forced him to follow.
Depleted, exhausted and near death, decided to stop to rest, and build with his last effort overnight facilities.

"I'll be better. It was the last thing you said and died.
All animals of the valley were to look at his remains, there was the wildest animal of the field, his tomb was built as a monument to folly, there was a hard shelter, worthy of one who died for wanting to make a dream.
One morning when the sun shone in a special way, all the animals gathered around what had become a warning for the bold.

Suddenly they were astonished, that hard shell began to crack, and with amazement saw eyes and antennae that could not be those of the caterpillar thought dead. Little by little, to give them time to recover from the impact, were leaving the beautiful butterfly wings that impressive to be in front of them, which would make her dream, the dream for which he had lived, who was dead and the who had returned to live.



Everyone was wrong ...
God created us to achieve an ideal, live for him, trying to achieve, put their lives for it and if we realize we can not, we may need to make a stop on the way and experience a radical change in our lives and then, with new vigor and grace of God, we will.

"Success in life is not measured by what you've accomplished, but by the obstacles you have faced in the way."
