The Story of the Dragonfly July 23, 2019 14:41
The fairy like qualities of the Dragonfly has made them fascinating creatures. The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world symbolizes change and change in the perspective of self realization. Change of mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life. The dragonfly normally lives most of its life as a nymph or an immature. It flies only for a fraction of its life and usually not more than a few months. This adult dragonfly does it all in these few months and leaves nothing to be desired. This style of life symbolizes and exemplifies the virtue of living IN the moment and living life to the fullest. By living in the moment you are aware of who you are, where you are, what you are doing, what you want, what you don’t and make informed choices on a moment-to-moment basis. (quoted from: Learn More About Nature)
The Story of the Dragonfly
Once, 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!

Are you one of many who have been trying to eliminate toxins from your everyday life? I know it's not easy, but taking small steps all add up. You can start with things you do each day without even realizing it. Like that perfume from a department store that you spritz on as you're running out the door or that moisturizer you quickly rub on your face and arms or that bright blue bath bomb that you soaked in. All of these products contain chemicals.....whether they are synthetic fragrances or dyes, they are are all toxins.
Which is why I am so excited about our new monthly subscription box, Scent of the Month Club. I help you eliminate those chemicals a little bit each month. I know you're busy with work, running around with the kids or maybe helping a parent or friend recover from an illness. Which is why I created this self care box for the busy modern woman who recognizes the importance of self care and a little "Me Time."
Each month you'll receive a beautifully curated box based around an all natural perfume blend. These perfumes contain only natural plant based ingredients. No chemicals. No synthetic fragrances.
Some other items that will be included are more naturally formulated body lotions and butters, dye free bath fizz, facial products, candles and some cute little gift items. Our deluxe box also includes a piece of handcrafted fine jewelry. All of these products are to help you begin to live a cleaner more fabulous lifestyle one small step at a time.
You can get these boxes using the link below. I hope you join me in my mission to get cleaner natural products in the hands of more woman.
