Dragonflies are sent to us as a source of strength and hope when we go through the trauma and depression associated with the loss of a loved one. These divine animals are a reminder that though these people have passed on in the body, they are with us in spirit. It could even be that they are present at that very moment.
The dead cannot communicate with us as frequently and as clearly as they used to when they were on this side of the universe. The only option they have now is to send clues and representative animals to us. It's left to us to decode what these messages mean.
They are always with us
They may either be trying to hint us of their presence or, they may be trying to let us know that it is time to let go of the sadness, guilt, regret, or any other negative emotions that their demise caused us.
Clinging on to negative emotions after a loved one has passed could turn out detrimental to us, especially if we hold on for too long.
We should see death as a necessary evil. It is, after all, a passageway to eternal life. The dead are not vanquished into oblivion, they are simply existing in a different realm from us. And, unfortunately, communication between these realms is not a smooth operation.
It appears that the occupants of the divine realm have the upper hand over us who are in this realm. Due to this, they can see things from a better perspective, and they can hear our thoughts, words and emotions-vice versa is not always the case.
They are concerned about our welfare
The love and affection that these people had for us before they crossed over to the other realm do not diminish with their passage. If anything, they have a better chance of protecting us than they did while they were here.
Since these people have our best interests at heart, they would do all they can to ensure our well-being. And, since the guilt and grief that we harbor are detrimental to our well-being, they send us these dragonflies as representatives to urge us to let these feelings go and embrace happiness.
We will be reunited with them eventually. But, since there's no telling how long it would take for that to happen, it would be best if we simply took our minds off the wait, and enjoyed whatever time we have left. After all, we all only get one shot at life. They've had theirs, and they do not want to be the reason yours is ruined.
Preserve their memories
Preserving the memories of loved ones who have passed on can help us process our grief. You could commit your time and resources to an activity they used to cherish.
Alternatively, you could take some of their properties and make them yours so you could feel their presence always.
There's no timeline for your recovery
Always remember that there's no deadline for grief. You're allowed to mourn and move on at your own pace, provided that you keep making an effort to recover.
You could reach out to friends and family to help you process your grief faster so you can get back to your usual routines.
Try to adjust to life without them
You have to realize and accept that henceforth, life will no longer be as it used to be. You'll have to adjust your habits and routines that used to include them.
If it's possible, take time off these things for a while, until you're strong enough to do them without getting overwhelmed by the void. If other people are offering to replace them and fill in this void, open up and receive them.
However, you should also remember not to make drastic changes as well. This could overwhelm you more than the actual loss. Take things easy.
You may feel guilty for 'moving on too quickly’, but you're not entirely forgetting these loved ones. You're only putting things to facilitate your healing process. Their memories will remain in your heart for a long time.
