Growing up in the Midwest, along with humid summer days, came the delight of after-dark "lightning bugs," or fireflies. When I return for visits during July or August, I always look forward to watching for fireflies at night, though I no longer collect them in a jar with tiny holes for air in the lid.
Here is some whimsical advice from a firefly, by Ilan Shamir. I especially like the last one. How about you?
- Be full of bright ideas.
- Pulse with excitement.
- Have a healthy glow.
- Delight in summer evenings.
- Keep a childlike sense of wonder.
- Set a shining example.
- Lighten up!
