There are only two ways to live your life.
One is as though nothing is a miracle.
The other is as though everything is a miracle.

What a gorgeous photo – bees really are miracles :)
Not hard to guess which option you have chosen.
Love the bee in the lavender!
What a perfect quote!
What a beautiful photo. I’ve been watching bees all weekend, fascinated by them…
How could we stand to live in a world where there are no miracles? Nothing should be taken for granted. Thanks for reminding me!
Lovely photo – and one I can relate too!
Absolutely!

Folks, if you click on the photo, you can see an enlargement of Dan’s amazing bee – exquisite detail down to the individual hairs on her legs!
Absolutely! You know which side we both stand on! ;)
Wow, that is truly an amazing picture, I want more bees in my garden! Found out that they are the reason why zucchinis plants do well and I’ve never stopped wanting them around. That and we love honey 8), thanks for reminding us of miracles that happen every day.
Lorraine, I certainly do! :)
Soy, we’re just planting zucchinis now! :)
At last! A woman unconcerned about hairy legs!
Hehe…doesn’t she smear pollen all over them in an attempt to pretty them up? :)
Great photo and great quote – so many miracles happening every day.
Great photo! Good words too.
Love Bees, very cool. The Bees Knees in fact its so good :)
I’ve been trying to keep that quote in my head all morning. The very beautiful photo makes the bee look fluffy!
I’m so glad you all enjoyed this! Anna J, I wonder where the expression “bee’s knees” actually came from?
C, thank you for pairing my pic with such beautiful words. I love that quote.
Dan, you take some of my favourite photos in the whole world. So glad you liked the quote! Much love…xx
