"The bee collects honey from flowers in such a way as to do the least damage or destruction to them, and he leaves them whole, undamaged and fresh, just as he found them." ~     Saint Francis de Sales

Let's become like bees in this way, caring for the earth, her creatures, and all her resources, causing the least amount of damage as we take what we need.

Let's aim to treat one another this way too, causing no harm. 

With small acts of kindness, respect, and understanding, there is so much we can do to make life better for ourselves and all others. 

Truly,
Charlene
