How you approach life powerfully impacts the life you experience. Do you stand outside yourself and observe how, in ways small and large, you are creating your daily reality. ‘Be the Bee, Not the Fly’ is a reminder to seek out the best of life, interpret events in a positive way, give others the benefit of the doubt, walk on the sunny side of the street.
The Bee looks for honey, the sweetest nectar. Bees are industrious and productive, ‘busy as a bee’ is a stock phrase. Bees contribute, their role in pollination and the ecosystem is vital.
Flies on the other hand, are unclean pests, they seek out trash and filth, the lowest of the low and are associated with disease and pestilence, garbage and waste.
So ‘Be the Bee, Not the Fly’. What you focus on expands, thoughts held in mind attract in kind, whatsoever a man thinketh in his heart, so is he. Your thoughts create your world so please create well; it is your one and only precious life.
