Dragonflies provide us with a beautiful
symbol of our becoming the person we were meant to be as we age.
Dragonflies are a real fascination to
me. Maybe part of my fascination with
dragonflies is that besides their luminous beauty and looking fairy-like, they
have been around for at least 300 million years ago, even before dinosaurs
roamed the earth.
They have such an
agile flying ability, which symbolizes elegance and grace. The beautiful iridescent
colors remind me of the discovery of one’s hidden talents and true nature,
which should be rediscovered in our later years.
I look at dragonflies as a symbol of change and maturity because they only remain in the dragonfly stage for about two months and yet they could live for six years. They spend most of their life being a nymph in the water before their metamorphosis into a full-grown beautiful creature. Isn’t that how we humans are? Most of our life is spent learning lessons and maturing and then, finally, one day, we began to blossom into the person we were meant to be.
