The Way To Fly A Dragonfly

May 4, 2008

When I was small dragonfly was my favourite insect. The other was ant. Somehow I got the idea that the inventor of helicopter got their inspirations from observing a dragonfly.

But I had not been kind to both of my favourite insects. For instance, I used to attach strings to dragonflies to make dragonfly kites.

I would run into the open field with my hand holding the other end of the strings and the dragonflies, in their attempt to break free, would flutter their wings and float in the air.

If my parents found out however, they would scold me and told me to respect all living things and not to harm them.
