Share the wisdom found on your morning coffee cups or boxes of tea.

The Difference
I got up early one morning
and rushed right into the day:
I had so much to accomplish
that I didn't have time to pray.
Problems just tumbled around me
and heavier came each task.
"Why doesn't God help me?"
I wondered.
He answered,
"You didn't ask."
I wanted to see joy and beauty,
but the day toiled on,
grey and bleak.
I wondered why God didn't show me.
He said, "But you didn't seek."
I tried to come into God's presence;
I tried all my keys at the lock.
God gently and lovingly chided,
"My child, you didn't knock."
I woke up early this morning
and paused before entering the day:
I had so much to accomplish
that I had to take time
to pray.

My coffee cup reads " Keep your, Face to the SunShine and you cannot see the shadows.

Pic thats on it, a Beautiful Native American Indian Woman, mountains in back ground & Three Wolves!!!

Wolf being the teacher & all!!!!

Wolf...

Teacher,

Pathfinder,

Moon-Dog of my soul.

Howling,

Singing,

Teaching how to know.

Wolf is the pathfinder, the forerunner of new ideas who returns to the clan to teach & share medicine. Wolf takes one mate for life & is loyal like Dog. If you were to keep company with Wolves, you would find an enormous sense of family within the pack, as well as a strong individualistic urge. These qualities make Wolf very much like the human race. As humans, we also have ability to be part of society & yet still embody our individual dreams & ideas.

My Native American cup says:

"Hear the whisper
on the wind.
It is the Great Spirit
sending love
and peace
to all who listen."

These are all very nice.

However my coffee cup says:

"Tell Me It's Just P.M.S. And I'll Staple Your Head To The Floor."

Sorry but I am serious about this. It's what it says. There is a picture of a very angry looking woman holding a stapler on the cup.

My husband got me that cup years ago.

This got me laughing. After thinking about it... I guess in a way it really is Good Morning Wisdom for your hubby to remember from time to time, so it fits in to the topic!

on a box of tea...

Perspective

Out behind the house we have "our mountain." Alpinists would chuckle at its diminutive size, but the modest, grassy summit affords and ample perspective of the surrounding country. And why else do we climb, if not for perspective? When the mists in my head rival those of our valley floor on an early spring morning, I know where I need to go: up to where I can see. There is nothing fancy here, I'm afraid. Just my little footnote in the great human striving for clarity. I must confess to a feeling that some happy magic is at work, when the mists clear and I arrive home, a little wiser, for today.
