Bee-ing in Bliss

      The greatest of life’s lessons is usually not revealed with an illuminating flash of lightning and a clap of thunder. Instead, knowledge often presents itself in quieter ways that are much more subtle and so small they are almost imperceptible. That sought after wisdom can be seen demonstrated in nature, especially with the blooming of flowers as they offer their vibrant color to the world. While many people miss a full awareness of this miracle of nature, one small being always eagerly awaits this colorful event, viewing it as a signal to take flight on a sacred quest to find its bliss. The fragrance of those blooming flowers reaches out across great distances appearing to bees everywhere as a spectrum of inviting colors. It’s a call more powerful than that of the sirens who tempted the sailors at sea to go beyond their reason. This gentle summons from the flowers, rather than leading to destruction, is instead a benevolent force that preserves the essence of life. Lured into flight by the images of rainbow colored invitations, the bees are motivated to enthusiastically embark on a mission to merge with the nectar of flowers. Those industrious bees follow a blueprint offered by nature that can inspire all of us to alchemize the idea of scarcity into a lush Eden of intentional abundance. Bees are part of a divine plan to propagate the idea of goodness and offer that concept to everyone as a container for receiving joy.
