T O P I C R E V I E WBlueRoamerI found this on the side of a box of tea, how delightful!"When we were young, the 'tall' ones told us when to slow down. When the demands of the world became too great, their powers of reasoning proved maddeningly accurate. 'I think someone's tired,' they observed. And off for a nap we went. Ten minutes later, our dreaming faces had put us back in good favor with our exasperated parents. When we woke, the word somehow made sense again. What kind of truth might a napping child impart to us? Now we are the tall ones, living in a complicated world with no one to tell us when to slow down. The slumbering little one knows the value of not having the last word, or accepting a minor defeat. It's so simple. Miss out on something. Put yourself back in your own good favor. The world will wait."-David JacobyThere's something so wholesome about tea. teaSolane StarThanks BlueRoamer!!!!I Love My Tea Tooo!!!!!100% OrganicMate' Factor Yerba Mate'CARDAMOM CHAISolane Star http://www.matefactor.com/ teaologistHmm... thanks for the quote. Sleep and tea are my biggest, fattest addictions...Well first, it was sleep... stress makes me sleepy. Stress seems to make most other ppl nervous or angry. I don't really lash out. I spontaneously nod off or curl up like a cat and fall asleep. Then I wake up, no longer feeling sh1tfaced.The other big addiction is tea---hence, the alias. It picks up my normally low energy levels... but not in a O_O kind of way that a shot of espresso would incur.

Chapter 1 1 The words of the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. 2 Vanity of vanities, saith the Preacher, vanity of vanities; all is vanity. 3 What profit hath a man of all his labour which he taketh under the sun? 4 One generation passeth away, and another generation cometh: but the earth abideth for ever. 5 The sun also ariseth, and the sun goeth down, and hasteth to his place where he arose. 6 The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits. 7 All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again. 8 All things are full of labour; man cannot utter it: the eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. 9 The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun. 10 Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us. 11 There is no remembrance of former things; neither shall there be any remembrance of things that are to come with those that shall come after. 12 I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. 13 And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. 14 I have seen all the works that are done under the sun; and, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. 15 That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered. 16 I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. 17 And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. 18 For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. http://justbible.com/bychapter.asp?bookchap=B21C001.htm
