HONEY

Did you know that:
 - one spoonful of honey is enough to keep a person alive for 24 hours
 - one of the first coins in the world featured a bee symbol
 - honey contains live enzymes. The metal spoon kills these enzymes. The best way to consume honey is with a wooden spoon, if not, you can use a plastic one.
 - honey contains a substance that helps the brain function.
 - honey is one of the few foods on earth that alone can sustain human life.— at White Gate St Helena.
 - bees saved people from starvation in Africa.
 - propolis produced by bees is one of nature's most powerful antibiotics.
 - honey has no expiration date.
 - the bodies of the world's greatest emperors were buried in golden coffins and then covered with honey to prevent them from rotting.
 - the term "honeymoon" comes from the fact that the young couple consumed honey for fertility purposes after marriage.
 - a bee lives less than 40 days, visits at least 1,000 flowers and produces less than a teaspoon of honey, but for her it is the work of a lifetime.
 Thank you, dear bees!

This Is For The Living Only.

For The Living Only:  The Futility of Life. All men would like to be happy. The problem is that we are not quite sure what happiness is. At times we feel better than at other times. There are times when we feel great. But, even then we are not quite sure if this is all there is to happiness.

We imagine that these things must surely deliver on the promise for happiness, else so many people would not keep on seeking happiness in these things. To have a dream and then to pursue that dream seems to be the main reason for our existence. The dream is for riches, popularity, or prestige. To have other people acknowledging our importance is what life is all about, because we often have a hard time convincing ourselves that we are as important as we want o...

Since Death Is Certain And Real.

Please, read this heartily! "...Better to go to the house of mourning Than to go to the house of feasting, For that is the end of all men; And the living will take it to heart...." Ecclesiastics.7.2.nkjv. The way many people live, I wonder if they ever give serious thought to death and what will follow death. Man's physical body was made out of dust, and unto dust shall it return (Gen. 3:19). The soul (spirit) of man shall never die. "And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment" (Heb. 9:27). Every person who dies shall come forth from the grave. "Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation" (Jn. 5:28-29). When a person dies, his body is returned to the ground but the soul goes either to "Abraham's bosom,...
