Strange Things


Sometimes strange things happen in life. I can either chalk it up to just being strange, or look for meaning in these things. Since finding ho’oponopono and being closer to God, I’ve decided to look for meaning.

The other night, it was chilly and around six in the evening. I was sitting on my balcony (no trees, no flowers near), hanging out with my spouse. We were talking and such. And I had just taken a bath (using blue water of course!) I was wearing a hoodie, which I had put up because the air was chilly on my damp hair.

My spouse and I decided to go into the apartment, as it was getting cold. As soon as I walked into the apartment I heard buzzing in my ear. There was a bug in my hoodie! Immediately I took the hood off my head and the buzzing continued. I assumed a housefly had someone managed to get into my hoodie. I told my spouse and he tried to get the bug out of my sweater but couldn’t. He told me to take the hoodie off.

Still hearing the buzzing near my neck, I removed my hoodie and threw it on the floor. The second I did that, the bug emerged. Lo and behold it was a bee. A bee had someone flown into my hoodie while I was wearing it on the balcony. What a bee was doing flying around in the cold evening; I have no idea.

Unfortunately the bee was killed (accidentally while trying to free it). But we were both weirded out by the incident. That and the fact that the bee had not stung me at all.

This got me to thinking that the bee must symbolize something. So I did a little research on the web, and turns out that a bee symbolizes the soul. Or it’s resurrection. A bee is also a symbol of royalty for Egyptians and even Napoleon himself.

Now I am not sure what the bee means to me, I just think that it was meant to show me that God is listening.

Either way, you should open yourself up to clues and signs from God as he tries to speak to us and show us the way. I’m still not sure what my path is, but I am confident that God will show me. Until than I will clean, continue to drink blue water, and try not to react to memories.

Peace begins with me!T
