Butterflies are the insects that belong to the Rhopalocera from the order Lepidoptera of the Animalia kingdom. They go through four stages during their lifetime or complete metamorphosis. From eggs, they grow into larva or caterpillars, then into pupa or chrysalis and finally into imago or adult.
Everyone can learn many life lessons from these four life-stages of butterflies. One of those lessons is that we should have faith and patience in our ugly times; only then we can enjoy and see the beautiful times. Secondly, we should always emphasise growth else we will remain stuck at the same stage. And finally, we should spread colours of happiness, positivity and beauty all around us.
