The mantis parable

Summary:

The scene starts with one caterpillar put inside the jar, and even though the ctapilllar tries to escape from it, they cannot. One day one mantis came in front of the jar, gesturing that the caterpillar would not escape from the situation eternally. However, the mantis was caught by a human and put inside the jar like caterpillar did. The mantis needed desperate hope. Suddenly, the butterfly appeared in front of the mantis and helped them to escape. 

 

Opinion:

The message of the "Mantis Parable" is that we must never laugh at the misfortune of others, especially lower because we do not know what will happen in the future. The story it's about a mantis who didn't take seriously the catapiller's situation and was making fun of him. But when the caterpillar was about to leave without helping the mantis, he also was captured. When the Mantis realized what was happening he remembered the mantis and regretted what he did. Sometime later he was rescued by the mantis which has become the butterfly.
