Something absolutely unbelievable and magical happened today, I could still cry tears of happiness. #LoveOfMyLife and I are still amazed and still can't believe that this happened.
It was a really hot day, my wife and I were just strolling through town, eating here, drinking there... just a really lazy day.
Then I saw a dragonfly, at a place with no water nearby, the river was a 100m or so. The dragonfly looked beautiful, but also a little confused.
I stretched my hand out and what happened next brought tears to my eyes: the dragonfly flew to my hand, landed on my fingers and started holding steadfastly at my fingers - as to say "I am so tired, please being me to water".
First I thought it'll fly away but it didn't. It settled there, as if to looking at me and asking for help.
We immediately turned around and slowly walked towards the river. At one point, a breeze came and I had to cover her a bit so she wouldn't be swept away.
When we got close enough to the river and all the plants there, he* left my hand and flew to the next leaf and landed on one. There, I was allowed to gently stroke his wings a last time and it really looked as if he was raising her head and saying "thank you" 馃ス馃ス
We were so absolutely amazed, it was really such an unbelievably magic situation - I still can't believe what happened there...
Wow 馃槏馃ス馃ス

*: 2nd Edit: I was kindly (thank you a million) informed that it was a male Calopteryx splendens
