So I love herbal tea. I know. I'm  such a hippie. But today my throat was kind of scratchy and I'm paranoid  about getting sick because everyone here is getting the REAL flu. Not  the stomach virus  that they all say is the flu, but the real,  out-of-commission-for-two-weeks flu. So I may or may not have had four  cups of tea by 3:00 today. This tea is the Traditional Medicinals  Organic Throat Coat tea, and it is delish. So as I was drinking one of  the many cups of tea I had today, I noticed the little tag thingie on  the tea bag said, "The choices you make can change the world." Huh.  Isn't that interesting. And then I started thinking about it. What if we  lived like that? What if we really lived like the choices we make will  change the world? What if you encouraged that moody teenager to do  something great - and then she did? What if you invited that  jerk of a guy to have lunch with you and asked him what God is doing in  his life? What if that started him down the road to being a preacher?  What if you took dinner to that young mom with four little kids one  night, just to help her out? What if that saved her some stress  and helped her marriage? What if the choices you make really did change  the world - or just one person's world? Would you do it? Would  you quit making excuses and try?
Just a thought. All from herbal tea. :)

Haha, this reminded of the thoughts Stewie and Brian had in family guy while in a weed smoking cafe in Amsterdam.
ReplyDeleteNot saying of course that these are weird, deep, drug induced thoughts. But hippie, herbal tea, weed, you know it all kind of goes together...
