Dear Worker Bees,
Is your honeybee buzzing around the house aimlessly? Are you looking for a simple activity to do on the fly?
Write a note. Write to a loved one or an essential worker. Write to someone near or far away. Make it exciting. Include glitter and colorful drawings of Cinderella. Offer your honeybee assistance and encouragement. Emphasize how happy and meaningful this small act will be to the recipient.
Write a note. Instill in your honeybee the value of a hand-written card. Texting may literally be at your fingertips, but sincere sentiment cannot be conveyed through a carefully selected emoji. Grant your honeybee some freedom from technological devices and immediate responses.
Write a note. Make it personal. Provide a friendly tone and exchange social niceties. Imagine that the recipient was in front of you; oh, how lovely that would be. Alter your voice in your writing to echo the circumstance for your correspondence. Remember to always close your letter without any loose ends:
“I am looking forward to seeing you soon.”
Write a note. Pour a cup of tea, sit at the kitchen table, and reflect on your gratitude together. Put pressure to your pen and print words that emulate the hug you long to give. Deliver a meaningful message that can be reread during a moment of uncertainty. Offer comfort. Send a tangible reminder of your appreciation, one worthy for the shoebox under the recipient’s bed.
Write a note with your honeybee.
BEE Well,
Mrs. Botto
