The mantis parable

A caterpillar is caught in a bottle, and he tried to get out, but he couldn't, because he can't fly.
A mantis comes to the bottle, and he tries to think about how he can help the caterpillar. He thinks it is difficult to help, and he leave. After that happening, the mantis is also caught in a bottle, and tries to get out. At the moment, one butterfly enter the room from window, and soon he leave as if he comes up some idea. He comes back to the mantis with his friends fireflies soon. when they spin around the cap of the bottle in which mantis is exist, the cap opens and mantis can get out.

This story tells me that helping each other is important to live. Maybe, the caterpillar is kind, so he have a lot of friends, fireflies. I was moved by him because he helped mantis although mantis didn't help him. Mantis is helped by caterpillar, so when he see someone is suffering, he will help him or her as repayment of kindness to the caterpillar.
