Today I read a wonderful post on this blog,
A Star on the Forehead, Blessed with a Star on the Forehead
Be a honeybee and not a fly
Today’s message included a You Tube video that caught my eye. It is worth watching. You can see her total post – and learn why this video spoke so loudly and meaningfully to her by clicking on the link above. And you can see the video posted below on this blog.
Learning from Bees & Flies
I was attracted to this video because (as many of you know) my husband is a retired beekeeper. Honeybees have been an important part of our livelihood – and Bob’s family’s income – for three generations. What can we learn about the importance of positive mindsets from honeybees and flies? Here’s the video:
The Choice is Ours
I think all of us would rather gather nectar and pollen to produce sweetness rather than choose to focus on the negative, gathering/spreading garbage and filth. The choice is ours!
Live with positive purpose –
Gather nectar while you may!
Sweet actions,
Sweet focus,
Good for your soul!
Good for others, too.
Garbage in –
Garbage out!
Pest, nuisance, scavenger …
Not for me!!
“My son, eat honey, for it is good,
Yes, the honey from the comb is sweet to your taste…”
KEEP A POSITIVE MINDSET!
BEE a honeybee, not a fly!
What will you do today to gather
the nectar of love
and spread it to your
friends and community today?
I send you lots of love…
Virtual hugs,
And Honey for your soul today.
Bee well!!
See ya later.

She has a great blog 🙂
Jan, thank you for sharing this site’s post and the video. The teaching from the analogy of the honeybee and the fly is precious in its application.
Yes, I thought it was pretty precious, too. Thanks, Richard.
