Just because a caterpillar takes time to transform, that doesn't mean it will never become a butterfly.

Just because a caterpillar takes time to transform, 

that doesn't mean it will never become a butterfly.

Just because a storm takes time to pass, 

that doesn't mean the sun will never shine again.

Just because the moon takes time to wax, 

that doesn't mean it won't reach its full brightness.

Just because a puzzle takes time to solve,

that doesn't mean the picture won't be completed.

Just because a journey takes time to unfold,

that doesn't mean the destination won't be reached.

Just because an artist takes time to sculpt, 

that doesn't mean the statue won't take shape.

Just because a student takes time to study, 

that doesn't mean the knowledge won't be acquired.

Just because a writer takes time to edit, 

that doesn't mean the story won't be perfected.

Just because a farmer takes time to sow, 

that doesn't mean the harvest won't be abundant.

And just because a heart takes time to heal, 

that doesn't mean it won't find love again.
