The First Bee (A startled but composed statement.)

The First Bee (A startled but composed statement.) - HomesteadHoboz

Today, a bee approached me.

Unannounced.

Unscheduled.

It hovered near my dossan with what I can only describe as artistic interest.

I froze.

We made eye contact.

It circled once.

Twice.

I lowered my chin slightly — not fearfully, but strategically.

It landed.

On. The. Fringe.

Time stopped.

The goat whispered, “Don’t move.”

I did not.

After several long seconds, it departed.

I remained still for a full minute afterward.

There are battles you win by not reacting.

Official Statement:
“Stillness is power.”

Respect. The. Hair.
