A long time ago just before all the animals in the world were created the gods were bored even though they have had created all the incredible living things the gods wasn't entertained with their creation so they decided to make a competition between the animals. So they decided to make a competition to reward the best insect of the creation. So they called for a reunion to choose the participants , the queen bee was the first to attend with her husband they came and all the gods turn around to look at their magnificence then the caterpillar, he wasn't sure to come because he wasn't beautiful or fast or really intelligent his only chance is that every other insect in the creation loved him because of his kindness the only thing that the caterpillar wanted was to be able to fly from one flower to another, no other insect wanted to participate, they thought that no one has a chance against the queen bee.
The competition start with a question from the gods
-What is your biggest contribution to the creation?
Firs the bee answer
-I provide honey to the creation it is delicious, me and my husband work hard to produce it.
The caterpillar says - I provide with help to other insects I'm always there for them to listen or give a wise advice, everybody loves me.
The gods tell to all the insects that it won't be until tomorrow that the will say who was the winner so everyone went to sleep except for the bees they wasn't sure about winning, the queen bee was sad because she believed that the caterpillar will win the competition so without say anything the husband took the caterpillar to the tallest tree in the creation and leave him so he couldn't attend to the decision of the gods and his beloved queen will win.
The day and the caterpillar wasn’t present so the gods ask to all the insects of the creation if anyone know where the caterpillar was and anyone knew but the husband's bee said -Maybe he understood that doesn't has a chance to win, that's why he hide somewhere.
The gods tired of waiting asked the bee what she wanted. She asked to be the queen of all the insects of the creation and rule them all. The gods were about to concede the wish but the caterpillar break into the room all sweaty and dirty and say - Stop, please stop! The husband of the bee took me to the tallest tree in the creation and leave me there so I could not assist today but my friend the eagle saw me and helped me to come.
So the gods decided to punish the husband of the bee anyone who tried to have a son will succeed but die after trying. And caterpillar after show to the gods being ready will be able to fly as he wanted and also be the most beautiful insect in the creation.
The moral of the story is not to cheat and be humble.
