THE BUSY BEE

A few days a go I was sitting alone in my house catching up on some reading. It was a nice sunny day and all of the windows and doors were open allowing the glorious weather to enter my property.
As I sat in total silence I became aware of a quite loud buzzing sound. The buzzing was getting louder and louder I looked through to the kitchen and saw a bee buzzing and bouncing off the kitchen window in a vain attempt to escape to freedom.
Again and again he would crash into the window, he was obviously using vast amounts of energy and once in a while he would pause. There would be silence for a few seconds until of he would go again there he was bouncing against the window once more. The kitchen was empty so the sound of his buzzing and his body crashing into the glass echoed around the whole room.
As I watched him I wondered why he didn't just take a step back (or even fly back) and then he would see that the kitchen door was wide open and freedom was just a few inches a way.
Then I thought how often do I do that? How often do we keep going down the same path, getting the same old results over and over again and then wonder why.
Sometimes all we need to do is to step back and see the bigger picture, sometimes a slight adjustment is all that we need and then just like the bee freedom is waiting for us.
If you are trying the same thing over and over again and don't like the results that you are getting, try a different approach. Sounds obvious doesn't it? but I guarantee that most of us just keep repeating old patterns and just like that Bee end up feeling trapped and frustrated when only a few inches a way is a gigantic door way leeding to flowers, grass, sunshine, cool air, FREEDOM!!
