What does a bee symbolize? I wish to give a gift with a BEE on it.

Bees as a symbol, historically represent rejuvenation and divinity.
Throughout history, the bee has become the symbol of activity, focus, dedication, good order, hard work, prosperity and abundance, teamwork, generosity, overcoming obstacles,  productivity and diligence, harmonious, cooperative behavior, the importance of togetherness, and fertility.
Honey takes us in the direction of "milk and honey," a saying that represents luxury.  
 Some ancient legends claim bees never sleep, and so their image was often used to represent bees can symbolize productivity and diligence.

Bees are an anatomical anomaly: Their bodies are massive in relation to their tiny wings, and yet they’re able to fly around with ease.

Along with how hardworking they are and their ability to survive despite the ecological pressures of climate change, makes them the ultimate symbol of productivity and diligence. They are symbolic of overcoming obstacles because of their physical, aerodynamic structure.
