Gratitude Monday: wings in the air


Early in the summer—well, maybe around May, early June—I saw a lot of fireflies. From the first stage of dusk up until around 2100, they flitted around the patio.


But they gradually faded—perhaps their season had passed for the year. Now I’m noticing dragonflies on my sojourns out of the air conditioning. They’re too fast for me to capture on video, but I can’t look at one without smiling. There’s something about dragonflies…

However, I’ve been able to capture a few bees going about their business, pollinating flowers and generally doing good.


Bees also fill me with happiness. So today I’m grateful for the insects that light the evening, decorate the air and keep the plant kingdom humming.
