Though I despise bugs and insects. Seriously, they scare me to death, I kill the ugly ones whenever I can (if I'm not too scared too), Yet still, the music was soo beautiful I had to buy this on iTunes. Such an beautifully sculpted short film. Strong message, gold and diamonds to my ears, pure.

Original musical composition by Josh Staub. He really was a one-man show on this production.

well made, but tbh the mantis would have killed the caterpillar, and it would have destroyed the butterfly.

My English just showed this to us today, she showed this to explain what a parable was because we are reading a story that has a parable in it. Im studying in highschool by the way. xD

A parable is a short allegorical story designed to illustrate or teach some truth, religious principle, or moral lesson.
In the story, you see the mantis refuse to help the caterpillar - he turns his back on her and says "that's it for you!" Then to his surprise he is captured.
The catterpillar eventually becomes a butterfly and escapes only to come back an save the mantis.
I believe the parable is the Golden Rule:
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
