Hello to everyone in our lovely hive on this beautiful December day. Because it\u2019s the last month of the year, we wanted to end with something especially significant. We felt the final message of the late and very great Jane Goodall was by far the best way to do this. Jazi and MamaQueenzieBee were moved to hear Jane exhorting humanity to realize we are all here for a purpose. She made it clear that all our lives matter and that what we do each day affects our planet, whether positive or negative. She tells us not to lose hope and to remember that we\u2019re part of Mother Nature, upon whom we depend for everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cOk, but still,\u201d you might be thinking, \u201cwhat does this have to do with Jazianzza and bees? I mean, she was incredible, but this is supposed to be about bees, and kindness, and things like that, right?\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Most of us are aware of Jane\u2019s lifelong work with chimpanzees. She was the first person to study them and thus realize they are very intelligent beings. For many, it wasn\u2019t a popular conclusion she came to, as it meant we humans aren\u2019t the only smart ones on the planet\u2026.and the rest is history!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Just for fun, here\u2019s a short video of Jane talking about one of her most cherished memories. The love and wisdom that pour out of her are incredible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
