Mantis Parable

 summary In the first scene, a caterpillar gets caught in a jar and couldn't get out.The mantis was there but didn't try to help the caterpillar.After a while, the mantis gets caught in the jar. Although the mantis didn't help the caterpillar, after transforming into a butterfly, the butterfly( a catepillar before) helped the mantis.

opinion In the scene the mantis gets caught in the jar, I think it issues "What comes around gets around". Because the mantis didn't help the caterpillar it came back to him. So in the whole story, I think it wants to tell that it is imortant to help each other.The mantis could never get out of the jar without the butterfly's help. It's important that we help each other because with other's cooperations, we could accomplish things that we can't do alone.
