I recently went through a spiritual experience and wrote down 33 messages inspired by my journey with God. This is the sixth of those messages – The Caterpillar and the Snake. I hope it helps you.
There were once two friends, a caterpillar and a snake.
Every day they would travel through the jungle together, discussing their lives.
The caterpillar was honest, loving and kind. He would now and then complain about how slow he was but other than that, he was mostly positive about things.
But the snake would always bring him down with toxicity and negativity. He spoke bad of all the other animals all the time – it seemed like he had nothing nice to say.
Every now and then the snake would shed his skin and the caterpillar wondered “why does he always shed his skin so much but he never actually changes?”
Then one day the caterpillar turned into a cocoon and eventually the cocoon broke open and the caterpillar turned into a butterfly. But he didn’t fly away, he was still friends with the snake and felt like he had to stay with him out of loyalty.
But after some time, he realised the snakes energy was bringing him down too much. He had to fly away soon.
Eventually the day came when the butterfly decided “today I will fly away”… so he prepared for flight and opened his wings…
