Let the Honey Soak Through

She reminded me that the world was really one big bee yard, and the same rules worked fine in both places: Don't be afraid, as no life-loving bee wants to sting you. Still, don't be an idiot; wear long sleeves and long pants.
~Sue Monk Kidd

First verse adapted from Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees, additional lyrics and music by Ingrid Elizabeth, arrangement by Mouths of Babes.


Another quote from The Secret Life of Bees:

People, in general, would rather die than forgive. It's that hard. If God said in plain language, "I'm giving you a choice, forgive or die," a lot of people would go ahead and order their coffin.
~Sue Monk Kidd
