Dragonfly

Spiritual Story by UnknownOnce, in a little pond,

in the muddy water under the lily pads, there lived a little water

beetle in a community of water beetles. They lived a simple and

comfortable life in the pond with few disturbances and interruptions.

Once in a while, sadness would come to the community when one of their

fellow beetles would climb the stem of a lily pad and would never be

seen again. They knew when this happened; their friend was dead, gone

forever.

Then, one day, one little water beetle felt an irresistible urge to

climb up that stem. However, he was determined that he would not leave

forever. He would come back and tell his friends what he had found at

the top.

When he reached the top and climbed out of the water onto the surface

of the lily pad, he was so tired, and the sun felt so warm, that he

decided he must take a nap. As he slept, his body changed and when he

woke up, he had turned into a beautiful blue-tailed dragonfly with

broad wings and a slender body designed for flying.

So, fly he did! And, as he soared he saw the beauty of a whole new

world and a far superior way of life to what he had never known existed.

Then he remembered his beetle friends and how they were thinking by now

he was dead. He wanted to go back to tell them, and explain to them

that he was now more alive than he had ever been before. His life had

been fulfilled rather than ended.

But, his new body would not go down into the water. He could not get

back to tell his friends the good news. Then he understood that their

time would come, when they, too, would know what he now knew.

So, he raised his wings and flew off into his joyous new life!
