BUSY BEE
When you feel that being persistent is a difficult task, think of the bee. A red clover blossom contains less than one-eighth of a grain of sugar; 7,000 grains are required to make a pound of honey. A bee, flitting here and there for sweetness, must visit 56,000 clover heads for each pound of honey; and there are about sixty flower tubes to each clover head. When a bee performs that operation sixty times 56,000 — or 3,360,000 times — it secures enough sweetness for only one pound of honey.
