I can't thank you enough for sharing Chase's journey with us. It was a huge help in my son's journey as well. May God Bless You now and forever.<BR/><BR/>Rich McGowan (Angel Matthew's Dad)<BR/>http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/matthewmcgowan<BR/><BR/><BR/>The Dragonfly Story<BR/> Down below the surface of a quiet pond lived a little colony of water bugs. They were a happy colony, living far away from the sun. For many months they were very busy, …scurrying over the soft mud on the bottom of the pond. <BR/> They did notice that every once in a while one of their colony seemed to stop going about with its friends. Clinging to the stem of a pond lily, it gradually moved out of sight and was seen no more. <BR/> "Look!" said one of the water bugs to another, "One of our colony is climbing up the lily stalk. Where do you think he's going?" Up, up, up it slowly went...Even as they watched, the water bug disappeared from sight. His friends waited and waited but he didn't return.<BR/> "That's funny!" said one water bug to another…<BR/> "Wasn't he happy here?" asked a second…<BR/> "Where do you suppose he went?" wondered a third…No one had an answer. They were greatly puzzled. <BR/> Finally one of the water bugs gathered his friends together. "I have an idea. The next one of us who climbs up the lily stalk must promise to come back and tell us where he or she went and why." <BR/> "We promise," they said solemnly. <BR/> One Spring day not long after, the very water bug who had suggested the plan found himself climbing up the lily stalk. Up, up, up he went. Before he knew what was happening, he had broken through the surface of the water and fallen into the broad and free lily pad above. <BR/> When he awoke, he looked about with surprise. He couldn't believe what he saw. A startling change had come over his old body. His movement revealed four silver wings and a long tail. Even as he struggled, he felt an impulse to move his wings...The warmth of the sun soon dried the moisture from his new body. He moved his wings again and suddenly found himself flying about in great curves. As he flew through the air he felt exhilarated in the new atmosphere. <BR/> By and by the new dragonfly landed happily on a lily pad to rest. Then it was, that he chanced to look below to the bottom of the pond. Why, he was right above his old friends, the water bugs!. There they were scurrying around just as he had been doing some time before.Rich McGowanhttp://www.caringbridge.org/visit/matthewmcgowannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15901857.post-52923398389563354012007-09-20T03:29:00.000-07:002007-09-20T03:29:00.000-07:00OUR PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU.
