February 11 - Dragonflies and Children

When I was a kid, I remember quite clearly catching dragonflies and examining them. I don't know why I feel compelled to write, but while I probably did once or twice, I wasn't generally the sort to rip their wings off. I also remember catching butterflies. I haven't been able to catch either as an adult, at least not with my bare fingers. Kids aren't normally known for their patience, but they must have tremendously greater patience and concentration to be able to catch dragonflies. Along with their energy, it would be nice to figure out how to re-capture that, as an adult.

Yep, that's all. What? You think all of these are going to be like yesterday?
