Once upon a time, in a backyard nearby, there lived a busy bee. Bee was always hard at work, flying from flower to flower, gathering nectar for the Great Mother. But despite his tireless efforts, Bee was never satisfied.
One day, as Bee was flying through the fields, he saw a beautiful butterfly. The butterfly lazily fluttered around a dandelion, and Bee couldn't help but envy its carefree existence.
"Butterfly," Bee said, "how do you find the time to relax? I am always so busy working."
The butterfly smiled and said, "I am not burdened by the responsibilities that you have, Bee. I am free to enjoy the beauty of nature whenever I please."
Bee thought about the butterfly's words and realized that he had been so focused on his work, that he had forgotten to enjoy the beauty of life. From that day on, Bee made sure to take a break and smell the flowers. And he was happy to find that by taking a break, he was able to enjoy his work more as well.
***
As the bee buzzed off to continue his work, Butterfly couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy. The bee had a goal and a sense of purpose that Butterfly lacked in her carefree existence. So Butterfly decided to take after the bee’s life in turn, and started to explore the world around it, making friends with other butterflies.
See you tomorrow!
