Metamorphosis

My daughter in her experiment.

This is my daughter doing her observation of the stages of insect metamorphosis. Though, this wasn't a new thing for me but all of us were excited when we saw the butterfly came out from its shell in the final stage. Both girls were very happy as we let go of the butterfly on the very next day.

Metamorphosis is a biological process by which an animal physically develops after birth or hatching, involving a conspicuous and relatively abrupt change in the animal's body structure through cell growth and differentiation. This is what Wikipedia shows when I looked for the more comprehensive definition of the word.

I call it transformation. I find this process to be all-inclusive. It speaks of all experiences that brought people to change. Experiences that cause people to doubt, and surmise the way the universe spin. The way it creates a person is imperceptible. I can't recall how many times I had a transformation myself, in a way that I did not recognized. But I was told and I thought that this probably is how everyone's life is drafted. 


Change, transform. Metamorphosis.
