THE 11-11 BUTTERFLY; SHORT BEDTIME STORY FOR YOUNG STARSEEDS ?

THIS IS A UPDATED REMAKE OF A SHORT STORY I WROTE BACK IN 1990 & PUT IN MY 2ND BOOK TO EXPLAIN THE 11-11 PHOTON BELT ASCENSION.

GEORGI THE ''WANTABE'' CATIPILER WAS A VERY QUIROUS CATIPILLER AND HE HAD HIS OWN IDEAS AS TO WHAT WAS GOING ON IN THE WORLD AROUND HIM. IN FACT THATS HOW HE GOT THE NICK NAME OF ''WANTABE''.HIS FRIEND TEASED HIM A LOT BECAUSE HE WASENT SATIFIED WITH JUST EATING ALL DAY LONG. HE KEPT WATCHING THE BEATIFUL BUTTERFLYS FLYING AROUND HIM IN THE GREEN PASTURE WHERE HE ATE.THEY WERE SO GRACEFUL,THEY DIDEN'T SPEND ALL DAY EATING BUT WAS FREE.WHAT A WONDER FEELING THAT MUST BE HE TOLD HIS FRIENDS, TO BE ABLE TO COVER GREAT DISTANCE'S QUICKLY AND BE ABLE TO SEE EVERYTHING GOING ON BELOW. TO NOT ONLY BE ABLE TO WALK LIKE WE DO BUT TO FLY. AND THEY ARE SO BEATIFUL TO LOOK AT. HIS FRIENDS SAID TO GEOGI,LOOK YOU HAVE A HUNDRED FEET TO GET YOU TO THE FOOD THAT YOU MUST EAT SO YOU CAN GET FAT AND BUILD YOUR COCOON SO THAT YOU CAN DIE IN PEACE IN IT. BUT GEORGI SAID NO I DON'T BELIEVE THAT I KNOW THER MUST BE MORE TO LIFE THAN THIS.IN MY NEXT LIFE I WANT TO BE A BUTTERFLY LIKE THEM.AND SOME DAY I WILL, I JUST KNOW IT. THATS WHY WE CALL YOU GEORGI WANTABE.,THEY SAID.THERES NO LIFE AFTER DEATH, ONLY HEAVEN , JUST LOOK AT ALL THOSE EMPTY COCOONS HANGING AROUND.

THEN ONE DAY ONE OF THOSE BUTTERFLYS LANDED NEXT TO HIM AND HEARD THEM TALKING AGAIN. NOW NORMALLY CATIPILLERS DON'T TALK TO ONE ANOTHER SPICIES BUT THIS ONE OVERHEARD GEORGI'S WISH AND SAID TO HIM. HAVE FAITH MY FRIEND YOUR BELIEF IN SOMETHING MORE WILL GET YOU THERE SOMEDAY. YOU CAN BE WHAT EVER YOU WANT TO BE, LOOK AT ME. AND THEN HE TOOK OFF WITH A WINK AND A SMILE. WELL THAT GAVE GEORGI COURAGE TO OVERCOME HIS FRIENDS JOKES ABOUT HIS BELIEFS.TIME PASSES AS TIME DOSE AND THEY ALL GOT BIG AND FAT.AS THEY KNEW IT WAS ALMOST TIME FOR THEM TO BUILD THERE COCOON'S. OF COURSE HIS FRIENDS TALKED ABOUT HOW UNFORTANATE SOME CATAPILLERS WERE TO BE EATEN BY BIRDS AND OTHERS THAT GOT SQUARSED , THEY WONDERED IF THEY WOULD MAKE IT TO THE AFTER LIFE BECAUSE THEY HADEN'T BUILT THERE COCOONS. HIS FRIENDS STILL BELIEVED THAT THEY WENT TO A HIGHER PLACE IF THEY WERE GOOD AND IF THEY BUILT A GOOD COCOON. BUT NOT GEORGI, HE FELT THAT THE COCOONS WASENT WHERE WE DIED AND HE TOLD THEM THAT, AND THEY JUST LOUGHED AT HIM. EVEN MORE SO WHEN HE TOLD THEM HE WANTED TO BE A BUTTERFLY IN THE NEXT LIFE. THEY TEASED HIM BY ASKING HIM DID HE GROW WINGS YET.

WELL THAT FAITHFUL DAY CAME WHEN THEY KNEW IT WAS TIME FOR THEM TO GO AND BUILD THERE COCOONS. EACH OF THEM HAD ALREADY CHOSEN A SPOT THEY FELT WAS SAFE AND WOULD BE THE PLACE THEY WOULDTRAVEL TO IN THE NEXT WORLD , AT LEAST THATS WHAT THEY HOPED FOR. THEY CHECKED GEORGI TO SEE IF HE HAD ANY WINGS YET AS THEY SAID GOODBYE TO EACH OTHER, SEE YOU ON THE OTHER SIDE THEY SAID AS THEY ALL WENT THERE OWN WAYS TO THE PLACES THEY HAD PICKED. BUT FOR GEORGI HE STILL WONDERED HOW HE WAS GOING TO BECOME A BUTTERFLY. AND AS FATE WOULD HAVE IT HE CAME ACCROSS A MOST STARTLING EVENT TAKING PLACE NEAR TO THE SPOT WHERE HE WAS TO BUILD HIS COCOON. AT A COCOON THAT HE THOUGHT WAS EMPTY, SOMETHING WAS CROWING OUT OF IT.OH MY! IT WAS A BUTTERFLY. BUT HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE HE ASKED HIMSELF. THEN HE REMEMBERED WHAT THE BUTTERFLY THAT SPOKE TO HIM SAID, LOOK AT ME AND HAVE FAITH ,YOU CAN BE ANYTHING YOU WANT TO BE. THEN GREAT JOY CAME OVER HIM. HE KNEW THAT HE TOO WAS TO BECOME A BUTTERFLY, AND NOW HE HAD PROOF. HE WANTED TO TAKE OFF AND GO AND TRY TO FIND HIS FRIENDS BUT KNEW THAT WAS TABOO AND BESIDES HE DIDEN'T HAVE MUCH TIME LEFT. HE HAD TO GO BUILD HIS OWN COCOON ,IF HIS DREAM WAS TO COME TRUE.

SOME TIME LATER HE FINISHED HIS COCOON AND AS HE CRAWLED INO IT HE WONDERED TO HIMSELF. WILL I REMEMBER BEING A CATIPILLER AFTER I BECOME A BUTTERFLY AND WILL MY FRIENDS MAKE IT THERE AS WELL.YES HE THOUGHT,BUT WILL THEY REMEMBER EACH OTHER. THESE WERE HIS LAST THOUGHTS AS HE DRIFTED OFF TO SLEEP, HE THOUGHT TO HIMSELF, I WONDER IF THEY KNEW WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THEM BEFORE THEY WENT TO SLEEP OR DID THEY KEEP THERE OLD BELIEF SYSTEM. MAYBE THEY WOULD REMEMBER WHEN THEY WOKE UP AS BEATIFUL BUTTERFLYS. HE THEN FELL INTOA DEEP SLEEP.

AND WHEN HE AWOKE AGAIN HE FELT DIFFERENT. HE HAD TO GET OUT OF THIS COCOON, SO HE REAPED IT OPEN ANGCIOUS TO SEE HIS NEW BODY AND SURE ENOUGH HE HAD A MOST BEATIFUL BUTTERFLY BODY. AT FIRST HE WALKED AROUND ADMIRING HIMSELF AND WHAT GOD HAD GIVEN HIM AND YES HE DID REMEMBER BEING A CATIPILLER. TO MANY THOUGHTS BEGAN TO RUSH INTO HIS HEAD. THEN AFTER HE GAVE THANKS HE REMEMBERED THAT NOW HE COULD FLY , HE WAS NO LONGER GROUNDED TO THE EARTH. SO HE FLAPPED HIS WINGS A COUPLE OF TIMES AND THEN TOOK OFF. NOT ONLY WAS THE VIEW A WONDERFUL SIGHT, HE HAD SUCH A GREAT FEELING OF FREEDOM AS HE KNEW HE WOULD AS HE FLEW AND GLIDED OVER EREAS HE HAD LIVED BEFORE AS A CATIPILLER. AND HE LOOKED DOWN AND SAW SOME YOUNG CATIPILLERS CRAWING AROUND JUST LIKE HIMSELF WHEN HE WAS YOUNG. ONE OF THEM STOPED EATING AND LOOKED UP AT HIM , AND SAID TO HIS FRIENDS, LOOK AT THAT, NOW THAT IS FREEDOM, HE IS BEATIFUL AND CAN FLY. WITH THAT HE TURNED TO HIS FRIENDS AND SAID THATS WHAT I WANT-TO-BE ''A BUTTERFLY''.HIS FRIENDS LOUGHED AT HIM.

THE FEELING OF DAYSHAFU WENT THROUGH GEORGI AS HE OVERHEARD THEM AND HE GAVE THE YOUNG CATAPILLER A SMILE AND A WINK AND THOUGHT TO HIMSELF THAT SOMEDAY HE WOULD BE BACK TO TELL HIM MORE WHEN HE WAS OLDER. BUT FOR RIGHT NOW HE HAD TO GO AND TRY AND FIND HIS FRIENDS. SO HE FLEW AROUND FOR SOME DAYS UNTIL HE FOUND A LARGE GROUP OF BUTERFLY'S. HE STOPED AND MADE FRIENDS WITH THEM. AND AFTER SOME TIME HE STARTED ASKING THEM IF THEY KNEW HIS FRIENDS AND HE GAVE THEM THERE NAMES AND THEY ALL LOUGHED SAYING WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE NAMES, THOSE ARE NAMES OF CATIPILLERS NOT BUTTERFLYS. SO HE TOLD THEM THAT YES THEY WERE NAME OF CATIPILLERS BECAUSE THEY AND HE WAS A CATIPILLER BEFORE HE BECAME A BUTTERFLY. SO THEY MUST ALSO BE BUTTERFLYS NOW AS WELL.. HE BEGAN TO EXPLAIN TO THEM WHAT HAPPENED. AND HOW HE WAS ABLE TO REMEMBER BECAUSE BEFORE HE BECAME A BUTTERFLY HE SAW ONE LEAVE THE COCOON. THEY ALL LOUGHED AT HIM AND SAID THAT THEY REMEMBERED COMING OUT OF THE COCOON BUT NOTHING BEFORE THAT. THAT HE GEORGI MUST BE ONE OF THOSE ''WANTABE'S'' THEY HEARD ABOUT. GEORGI JUST SMILED & SAID YES I AM ONE OF THOSE.ARE THERE MORE LIKE ME ?
