mantis parable

 The story begins with a caterpillar caught by an insect collector. He tries to escape but he can't. One day, a mantis came and mocks him. Soon the mantis was caught and also couldn't escape. He understands his fate. Later on, the caterpillar transformed into a butterfly and came to save him. And he saved.


The plot and the theme were simple. The mantis symbolized pride and overestimated abilities. The story's lesson is to not mock others or it will turn back. Also, the role of the caterpillar creates a message of "mercy is not just for others" and forgiveness since he never bothered Mantis's attitude. 

Also, I like this beautiful piano piece which creates the setting simple and  peaceful
