a metamorphosis metaphor

There's something about this caterpillar that I find intriguing. I watched in awe as the caterpillar crawled slowly, yet deliberately across a stepping stone this past summer.
 a slow trek to change
To me, there is something so mysterious about the process of metamorphosis. This little fellow with his bold, almost clown-like stripes was on is way to becoming a beautiful, regal monarch butterfly. I wonder what goes through the mind of a caterpillar when he starts this process of change. Similarly to the caterpillar changing into a butterfly, we all change and hopefully continue to grow.
