SPECIAL DAY #5

 

This is one of the pictures we took of the many blue dragonflies that were hovering over the farm pond.  Had never seen anything like it before.  They're the blue little things above the tall weeds.

A blue dragonfly is called the Blue Dasher and is the showiest dragonfly.  In some cultures seeing a blue dragonfly is considered a meaningful experience.  It's ironic that Debbie and I would've seen so many blue dragonflies that special day we spent together.  It's another example of how we must get up close to the smallest of living things that share this planet with us.  From a distance, we can't know the blessings that are sprinkled along our path.  Nature affords us a magnificent showplace if we simply take the time to observe the silence that screams to be appreciated.
