"When I was a child, one of my most special memories
was catching lightening bugs. They lived in Arkansas where I grew up and I
thought that they were lanterns for the mosquitoes to find me. I
always marveled that adorable little bodies and their light making
ability.
They made the woods alive with miniature stars. I
would put them in a jar for a short time, but let them go so they can live
on to light up someone else's life. Catching a firefly is like catching a
star and holding on to it for a moment. How I dreamed of those summer
nights and the sound of crickets and frogs singing in the evening with
flickering lightening bugs making the night enchanting time".
