Excerpt from The Historium
Bees and flowers, at first glance, seem to have little in common.
Yet, bees would not exist without the flower to provide food for their hives. Nor would flowers exist in their profusion of beauty without bees to carry their pollen far across the fields.
It is thus the synergy between bee and flower that enables both to be greater than each alone.
This is but a single example of the many and varied teachings the natural world gives us. A morning stroll through the rich relationships active within a field offers many lessons for those who would open their awareness to them.
It is inconceivable that the Ancients, with all their scientific acumen, could not assimilate these simple lessons. They, instead, uprooted the natural beauty enfolding them and replanted it with overpopulated concrete jungles filled with filth and strife.
