the beez neez

i have never seen anything like this before. right outside our office in a very inconspicuous and unsuspecting bush these busy bees decided to congregate. i was told that the queen bee was the main attraction of this pile up. she supposedly just hangs out in the mosh pit, and all these crazy fella bees just swarm to get some "one on one" time with her highness. men! she must be one hot bee.

there are lessons on life to be learned all around us, in everything we come accross. all these crazy gentelmen bees, they found the she bee of their dreams, and nothing, seriously nothing, is stopping them from going for her, for the glory. somethings or some people in life may just be worth fighting for.

on the other hand a very different lesson can also be learned from this very same scenario. sometimes you just have to know when to give in. i mean honestly, do you really think that bee down there at the bottom, the last one hanging on to the last possible stinger, really has a chance with ye old queen? its probably time to move on. who wants a queen anyway she has got to be high maintenance.

pressure

i feel being in the line of the work that i am i am obligated to sweetness. but alas i am am never content and feel sweetness is something that i am always striving to reach but can never quite grasp. maybe i need longer arms, hopefully stretching can help

surrounded by greatness

at the risk of sounding cliche a book cant always be judged by its cover. there is so much more to the people we come across, every week and every day, than we can possibly know at a glance. but every now and again, if one looks long and hard, and gives it just enough time, small glimpses can be seen in sometimes seemingly unlikely places of the greatness that is inside us all. creativity, talent, compassion, love, understanding, friendship, life, intelligence, beauty, energy, sympathy, forgiveness, kindness, hope. its there, and it wants to share and be shared. there is so much to be learned and gained, if we can just look past the sometimes torn and beaten jacket and understand the words, paragraphs and chapters contained within.
