Harmony
We need each other. We rely on the harmony of our surroundings in order to thrive because we are all connected.
There are about 20,000 species of bee in the world, and they are responsible for pollinating 15-30% of US consumers' food. Bees survive on the pollen they gather from flowers. Flowers thrive and bear fruit because of the bees. And humans depend on them both. We are made to need each other; our ecosystem is a continuous whole.
It's fascinating to me that some bees specialize in pollinating only certain flowers that have developed characteristics just for those bees.
Even bees that are generalists, like honeybees, typically pollinate only one species of plant in an outing, which results in higher-quality pollination!
If you have the gift of harmony, you might sometimes feel frustrated that you can't fix everything. Despite all your skill, you simply can't reconcile all problems. But you are an integral part of your environment. The little things you do are never wasted, because we are all in this together. Don't exhaust yourself in your admirable pursuit of harmony; we need you.
