Coffee or Tea?

I have been a heavy coffee drinker for it seems forever. Although, I had sometimes enjoyed a cup of tea,it was usually one in the evening to relax. Last year at our Relay for Life I won a tea gift basket. I had been reading about the benefits of tea and had started to incorporate a cup or two of green tea into my daily diet. Lately, I have found that I am drinking one half cup of coffee most mornings and am now drinking all tea. I have found a few sites to order loose leaf tea through and have really enjoyed the different types and flavors. Plus an added benefit for me is that with coffee I always used some type of milk, creamer, etc and with tea I do not. Check out this site I found yesterday and ordered from, it already shipped and I should have it tomorrow. This is a page from that site of the health benefits of tea. http://www.adagio.com/info/health_benefits.html?SID=ad7bdd7174890721790e573960c54f4e

In Memory

I am standing upon the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean.
She is an object of beauty and strength. I stand and watch her until at length she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and sky come to mingle with each other.
Then someone at my side says: “There, she is gone!””Gone where?”Gone from my sight.
That is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side and she is just as able to bear her load of living freight to her destined port.
Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says: “There, she is gone!” there are other eyes watching her coming, and other voices ready to take up the glad shout: ‘Here she comes!”
And that is dying.
Henry Van Dyke

Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will. When the road you're trudging seems all uphill. When funds are low and the debts are high. And you want to smile, but you have to sigh. When care is pressing you down a bit. Rest, if you must, but don't you quit Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a failure turns about When he might have won had he stuck it out: Don't give up though the pace seems slow- you may succeed with another blow. Success is failure turned inside out- The silver tint of the clouds of doubt. And you never can tell how close you are. It may be near when it seems so far: So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit- It's when things seem worst that you must not QUIT Author unknown
