Tea in the Afternoon


Since my diet, I have been enjoying a cup of hot tea in the afternoons, usually around 3:00. Better than eating something…

I can’t have any caffeine so I have been exploring the herbal teas with gusto! My very favorite is the decaffeinated Good Earth original blend. It is spicy and just delicious.

As an extra little goodie, there are words of wisdom printed on the tab of each tea bag. Yesterday’s was:

Success is to be measured not so much by the position 
that one has reached in life
as by the obstacles which he has overcome.
Booker T. Washington
1856-1915

I smiled. Thank you, Mr. Washington. Brilliant. That is exactly way I feel trying to live well with a bad diagnosis - jumping over the obstacles and keep moving forward.
