I've always had a special kinship with Dragon Flys. They are magical creatures, deliverers of God's message of faith, hope and love. Gentle creatures that float and fly at whim, not afraid to explore plants, flowers, inanimate object, even us humans and share their curiosity of the world. In the spring when the flowers and crepe myrtle trees are in full bloom, the Dragon Flys surround our home. I love listening to their gossamer wings flap as they are flying and touching down to taste the sweet nectar the flowers have to offer.
Have you ever had the honor of having a Dragon Fly land on you? I have had that special privilege numerous times in my life. They wrap their tiny legs around your finger, gently holding tight, full trust that you are going to keep them safe. They take little nibbles of your skin getting to know you through their sense of taste and touch. Their eyes are like little windows into your soul sharing the goodness they see with you. I always count myself blessed that Dragon Flys find me so interesting. They remind me that I am special and have good things to offer this world.
Today there was a beautiful green and blue Dragon Fly in the garage. It kept flying from me to Hannah, landing on each on of us unafraid. I love teaching Hannah that God's creatures have so much to teach us about patience, love and acceptance. We all need to open our eyes and hearts to what nature has to show us.
