She gets me. Do you have that special someone in your life that builds you up, reminds you of all the goodness inside you and awaiting you? Oh how I hope you do. Those irreplaceable members of your tribe that stand with you side by side, through all ups, downs and in betweens. Life has felt a little uncertain lately. We all have those times, those times when things weigh on our hearts and dampen our creative spark. ‘All will be well’, I remind myself, again and again. Then the mail arrives, and tucked in an envelope amongst a few funny magazine clippings and handwritten notes, was this tiny tag. A token of her morning tea no doubt, but she saved it just for me and added a little extra love to seal the deal. How did she know? But of course she knew, she just does. Someone else might think it silly, not me, it was just the thing I needed. I tucked this little tag on my bedroom mirror right under this sticker.
Some days you just need a little reminder. I AM limitless, and just in case you forgot, so are you.
Have you found a message you needed in your tea, at your feet, or embodied in a token?
Do share it with us today.
Oh yes, have I ever – also in my tea: "We always can start again."

Messages and signs come to me in all forms. Yesterday – it was in this wild turkey..reminding me to open my heart and smile:

Oh! I love this post. I don't drink tea, but it makes me want to start…just so I can spread some love with those little tags. I'm so happy you have a special friend like that.
this is an old photo but it's one that took me by surprise

Last week when we had Chinese takeout, I got a fortune cookie with no fortune in it. I've never had that happen before. I usually love reading those and I like to save my favorite ones. This time I decided it meant I that get to make my own destiny. 🙂
I posted this photo (http://www.flickr.com/photos/25748965@N00/4312539343/in/photostream) on Flickr two years ago this month … and I'm still trying to learn the lesson conveyed by my tea that day! I keep finding myself in the same spot with regard to my work; still working on it. But a great message nonetheless.
I had Chinese last night and my fortune gave me a little smile.

I love tea bag wisdom!
I have been in the habit of buying cards for myself that inspire me, like this one:

Yay!! This post just brought some happy!!
it is great fortune to have a few good friends to be our magic looking glass,
to see us through the kinder eyes we cast on those we love, but so rarely train on ourselves.
I am not at all surprised that you have many, dear k – xo

Love this.
I'm blessed to have people like this in my life too 🙂
Oh! I love my daily tea messages, here's one from last week: http://www.flickr.com/photos/soupatraveler/6675549747/
Thanks for the heads up! I really need some motivation right now. I'm on my lowest…
So sweet! As I was walking downtown today, I saw a small, hand-painted wooden sign propped up against a pole on the corner of the street. It admonished me: "Love".
I received a message of my own yesterday! http://www.flickr.com/photos/31417716@N00/6727413373/in/photostream

I'm blessed to have people like this in my life too .He shoulda bed parked for the next 3 races in all three series. This would have included the 2012 Daytona 500. That might get his attention but I doubt it. I've written to NASCAR, M&M's, Interstate Batteries and Joe Gibbs Racing expressing my views.thanks
