I went outside just now to check on my sister’s bunny & feed him & on my way up my stairs I noticed a dragonfly sitting rather peacefully on one of them. She was completely still, so I wondered if she might be hurt/dying. I got down closer to her & she did not move, so I took a leaf & poked her gently. Her leg moved slightly but very slowly. I poked her several more times to see if she would move anymore & she continued to, again, slightly, but she stilled seemed pretty weak. I wanted to lay her down in the grass if she really was about to pass on, so I was trying to figure out a way to pick her up without harming her anymore than she already was. It took a few minutes but I finally managed to get her onto the leaf. I studied her closely, looking deep into her tiny, brown eyes & talked to her. One of her wings looked slightly bent & out of place & I wondered if that’s what was keeping her from being able to move/fly. I apologized to her if I was the reason for her injury (I thought I might have stepped on her carelessly while coming outside). She just sat there on the leaf while I talked to her, only slightly moving her legs every now & then. I told her that even if she was to pass on that it was only a new beginning  & not to worry. Then, for some reason, I was hoping I could heal her. I held up the amethyst I’ve been wearing around my neck to her body. She still didn’t move, so I waited a little longer, talked a little more. Just as I was thinking of putting her down somewhere, she flew. Just like that, she completely vanished. I was stunned. I just stood there in awe for a few moments. 

The universe works in the strangest, most magical ways.
