The excited butterfly
Shouted at his friend below:
“Fly! Reach for the sky!”
“My time has not yet come”
Said the waiting caterpillar.

In its own appointed time, eventually every caterpillar will fly, for it will transform into either a butterfly or a moth.
Perhaps that is the same timing for some people, therefore we should not judge.
To everything there is a season,
A time for every purpose under heaven:…
Eccl. 3:1
Love it, Leona! It is so true, and often people have unrealistic expectations about themselves or about others because they make invalid comparisons between them. There is a time, God’s time, for everything, and we will do well to remember that and to wait patiently for it.
Yes! I do agree and many times I have to remind myself of it also. 😊
