A Party Of Bees
Why your peace is sacred — and what nature is trying to show you about your energy.
For a long time, I didn’t realize how much my environment was shaping me.
I thought I was being discerning. I thought I could walk into any conversation, tune into any talk show, scroll any feed, and just pick out the useful stuff. The rest? I thought I was immune to it.
But I wasn’t.
I remember driving around, listening to political talk radio, and finding myself feeling tense. Angry. Judgmental. I was critiquing people I didn’t even know — labeling strangers in my head like they were characters in some kind of drama I hadn’t auditioned for.
Eventually I asked myself:
“Why am I feeling this way?”
“Where is this judgment even coming from?”
“Is this really who I am — or who I’m becoming based on what I’m letting in?”
That was the shift.
What the Bees Know That We Don’t
The story “A Party of Bees” came from that inner realization — and from a question that bloomed afterward:
What if nature responds to our emotional energy the same way we do?
