I went for a run yesterday morning. I was so  full of the words that I had shared and the ones that still needed to be said.  I felt light and good. I ran to the lake as I often do. For the first time ever,  I stopped and sat down to admire its calmness (thank you Allison for the inspiration).  I settled in for a moment of quiet. A light hum filled my ear. I didn’t need to look. I knew what was there. On a flower beside me sat a dragonfly. Red and startlingly beautiful it held my stare. I returned my eyes to the stillness of the lake and quietly whispered.  “I see you.  I do. I hear what you are meant to say. ”  We shared a few more heart beats and I got up to continue my run looking up to see that the sky had filled with dragonflies. “I hear you.”
