In 2020, seeking a new hobby during lockdown, I started beekeeping with mail-order bees. Despite initial setbacks, including colonies leaving, my husband and I persisted. Eventually, we achieved a honey harvest and found the experience both educational and spiritually enriching. The bees offered moments of reflection and humility, and my husband has grown to appreciate the hobby. This book reflects a small part of my journey with the bees, dedicated to them with gratitude.
