Winter keeps trying to creep in. Snow falls and melts, but the bees have long since departed. I sipped honeyed tea with family for the first time in a while today—a much needed reprieve. But as honey takes time to make, I imagined the effort from my flying friend that it took to sweeten my tea and was thankful for it.

I am an Orthodox Christian who loves history, philosophy, home cooking, and poetry. I argued my way to a philosophy degree, and dropped out of seminary; ABD, working on my honorary doctorate.
I live in Minnesota with my wife and sons, and drink instant coffee as an act of first-world asceticism.
