The neighbours were chopping down a healthy tree that was growing in front of their new garage..and there I was inching by on my way out of the house this morning just watching this tree, which took years to grow and branch out and turn a beautiful green and offer us it's shade and cleaner air, I was watching it die...wondering why they couldn't transplant it instead of carve it's body up and toss it away, just because it happened to live where they moved in...
Suddenly this huge beautiful dragonfly started flying next to my car..following me down the road...so I stopped just to look at it and it flew up in front of me and then slowly and very gently kissed my windscreen, then it did a little dance and flew away...so I said 'sorry my people kill your friends, but thank you for that act of peace'...the world is so beautiful...we should help keep it that way...

You should've talked to your neighbours about the tree :/

It's a real waste to lose trees, specially in a country packed with cars & dust.

Exactly, I already plan to talk to him today, Those were my favourite trees..it won't do any good now, and I don't think it will make any difference in the future...some people just like to keep doing things the way they always do them..but I will offer to have the trees transplanted myself if he ever wants to cut any others down..
