I was thinking about this yesterday. It’s spring in Australia and there are bees always buzzing around my lavender bush. I’m standing there looking at them. They don’t take any notice of me. I’ve been alive for a while; They’ve being doing this for millions of years together. All those years of labour and I’m staring at just a tiny slice of it.
