A Facebook user uploaded photos of a dog, Leo, sharing that he had seen the animal sitting in the same spot every day, as if waiting for someone. They originally thought the dog had been abandoned, but then realized that he looked well-fed. It turned out that the dog had indeed been spending most of his around that intersection, but a woman had been coming around regularly to bring him food and water.

The 45-year-old woman, named Saowalak, said that when she first found him in that very same spot, several years ago, Leo was all skin and bones and plagued by skin disease, so she took him home and nursed him back to health. However, Leo returned to the same place she first saw him, making her assume that he was waiting there for his owner. She just came and brought him food and water every few days.

After learning about the story, the Facebook user decided to share it on social media, documenting with photos of the dog and the kind-hearted woman who looked after him. The post soon went viral and the photos of Leo got shared hundreds of times online.

Nang Noi Sittisam, a 64-year-old woman, almost had a heart-attack when her daughter showed her a photo of a dog that looked a lot like BonBon, the beloved dog she had lost during a car trip. Learning that he had been waiting for her in the same spot for the last four years, her heart melted.

Auntie Noi told her daughter to drive her to where the dog was waiting instantly she saw the photo and heard the story. When she got there and called his name, “Bon Bon”, the poor dog started wiggling his tail and came to her, but when she tried to take him home with her, he was reluctant to follow. She then understood that her BonBon had become attached to Saowalak, the woman who had nursed him back to health.

Adam was an orphan. He worked in a factory and every day he got a little money. Hard work made him thin and weak. He wanted to borrow a lot of money to learn to paint pictures, but he did not think he could pay off the debts.

One day a lawyer came and said to him, “One thousand dollars, and here is the money.” As Adam took the huge package of notes, he was very shocked. He didn’t know where the money came from and how to spend so much of it. Later he thought to himself, “What could I do with it? If it were a little less money, I would buy a new coat, or give a dinner to my friends. If it were more, I could give up the work and pay for painting pictures. But it’s too much for the first and too little for the second.”

“Here is the reading of your uncle’s will,” said the lawyer, “telling what is to be done with this money after his death. I must ask you to remember one point. Your uncle has said you must bring me a paper showing exactly what you did with his money, as soon as you have spent it.”

“Yes, I see. I’ll do that.” said the young man.

One day a man found a cocoon(茧) of a butterfly in the forest. He sat there for several hours and watched the butterfly. Suddenly a small opening appeared, and the butterfly struggled to force its body through that little hole. Then it seemed to stop making any progress. It appeared as if it had gotten as far as it could go no further. So the man decided to help the butterfly.

He took a pair of scissors and cut off the remaining bit of the cocoon so that the butterfly could come out easily. Much to his surprise, the butterfly got a swollen body but very small, weak wings when it came out of the cocoon.

The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that the body would grow smaller at any moment and the wings would enlarge and be able to support the body. But neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and small wings. It was never able to fly.

The man was in his kindness, but he did not understand the nature rules. The struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening was God's way of forcing fluid (流体) from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our life. If God allowed us to go through our life without any difficulties, it would make us fail. We would not be as strong as we could have been. And we could never fly.
