Re: Bee Pollen Returns (Is This True)

"unless one is willing and able to live radically different than the rest of modern society, and find balance with all facets of nature, worrying and making statements like ' I couldnt cope with the death of a Bee' seems to me ridiculous."

Of course, but you have no idea who I am so it is a little unfair to tar me with the same brush as your "average" man or woman in this "modern society" of yours. I eat only fruits, nuts, herbs and seeds; I only wear cotton, linen and hemp, and I refuse to tolerate any form of cruelty whatsoever - not due to feeling guilty I hasten to add, as one can only feel guilt after a done deed. For me there is no deed and thus no guilt. This is balance, no?

"Perhaps in the quest for physical/spiritual perfection we get a little too self-focused in the process to the point where we are afraid to experience things out of fear more so than out of love."

There is no fear in seeking to sustain life on all levels. Where is the "love" in shrugging your shoulders at even one bee's death? What is the difference between the life of a supposedly humble bee and the life of your son, daughter, nephew or niece?

As you said though, you are merely expressing your opinion. If there is any fault in this it is that you are expressing your opinion on a perception you have of "me" which is clearly false and confused.
