Bees

Spring is here and the flowers are out, but so are the bees. A few days ago one took a disliking to me, and as it turns out I'm a little allergic to them. My leg swelled up a bit and has been pretty uncomfortable since, though I think it is starting to go down now.

Isn't it funny how such a small thing can cause so much discomfort! Our lives are kind of the same though. Sometimes we pay too little attention to the impact that the small things are having on our lives. As emperor Yao once said:
"With trembling heart and cautious steps,
walk daily in fear of God.
Though you never trip over a mountain,
you may often trip over a clod."

Sorry to hear about your bee-sting!! Nasty when you have an allergic reaction - were you able to get hold of some antihistimines?

Yea, got some antihistimines. Most of the swelling is gone now.
