What have I learned today 11/03/2011

I have learned that what ever life does throw at you be positive and battle through it as what your problems are, they pale into insignificance when compared to someone else.

The utter natural tradegy in Japan that played out today brought that thought to the forefront. 
Watching how the power of nature completely obliterated peoples homes, businesses and more importantly loved ones just shows how we are merely sitting tennants on the planet that we call as our own.

My thoughts and prayers go out to every person directly and indirectly affected by this tradegy and I really do hope that swift global aid will go and help these unfortunate people.

Wild Honey Bees are worringly in decline all over the world. As one of natures biggest pollenators of flowers and crops, bee colonies are collapsing and disappearing - UN scientists have reported today. 

What is scary about this find is that of the 100 crop species that provide 90 percent of the world's food, over 70 are pollenated by honey bees.

So my motto is to be friendly to the honey bee ths summer, I know I will bee...(sorry couldn't resist it).
