Last night we were watching the fireflies and we got to thinking.
Why do they not appear in any famous literature. Wouldn’t you think that they’d fit right in a romance from Jane Austen or a thriller from Agatha Christie or a horror of Stephen King.
If you know of any honorable mentions give a shout out.
They are such incredible critters. We were wondering did ancient people see them and it gave rise to the idea of fairies.
Maybe Tinker-bell once was one.
Just image for a moment you’re a cave man and you are lying under your animal skin and all of a sudden these little lights are popping up all around. What would you think? Is the air on fire? Are pieces of the sun slipping down to earth? You’d be a little taken aback we think!
Why are they not in ancient texts like the bible? Or maybe they are. Anyone for angels?

My kids in CA, and formerly in WA report there are no fireflies -or as I called them: lightening bugs – out there. Sad, but true. We are lucky to have them twinkling in our evenings.
Hoping to see you tomorrow at our TMG picnic (at the church)
