Kaz,
Any day I make someone smile is a most wonderful day to me.

Hi Topi, your thoughts are a nice addition. As busy as a bee could take on a different meaning if we’re talking about wise bees.

Hey Keith, I’ve always felt we learn things exactly when we’re meant to, so although it felt like it took too long, you likely had to experience some other things first. And, I agree, it will bring joy to the heart.

Reading your post made me think about the term “as busy as a bee”, which I think is normally meant as a compliment, but when you drill down it’s about filling each moment with activity rather than being present and enjoying the moment. Thanks for sharing your wisdom!

Hello Eric,

Very wise bees indeed. This is a lesson I was too long learning, but enjoying the journey of life, not just some future destination/goal, is not only WISE but will bring joy to the heart.

Thanks Eric =)

Lori,
You are very kind, I appreciate the compliments. Thanks for leading the ROAKA charge once again, and I’m happy to balance and compliment your ideas any time.

I actually started out several times along the lines of your post, and I just couldn’t get the post to flow. Then I finally remembered I already had a post on Wisdom, so I brought Two Wise Bees back for an encore.

Tim,
Being King Bee for a day would make a nice addition to the journey.

Hi Eric!
First, I want to say thanks for being the cool guy you are and contributing your lovely thoughts to the RAOKA theme June. You ROCK, Mr. Eric.

I was thinking after I published my post that I wish I had spent more time talking about nature — how much wisdom is present all around us in non-human form. And, that’s what I love so much about this RAOKA endeavor, we get to hear all view points of the theme from many people. So, to make a long story short: thanks for posting this! Your thoughts made up for mine this month. How cool is that?!?!?

Thanks again, Eric the Enlightened One.

Hi Eric:

Ha ha…nice post! It has taken me a while but I’m learning about how important the journey is to life. So many of us are focused on the destination – especially retirement, getting married, getting that great job, etc. I, too, think honey is overrated…but I’d love to be King Bee Lebron James for a day!
