Monday's Tea Quote

The pot in which I brew my tea
Is dented and more than a bit tarnished,
But I still enjoy the tea.
The house I live in
Needs a coat of paint and several shingles,
But I sleep well at night.
The body I use to live my life
Is wrinkled and slowing down,
But I am alive and I rejoice.

I am not the body in which I live,
I am the life itself.

~Mark Otter

    But I am alive and I rejoice."

    Oh Marilyn, I love that photo. For a minute I thought they were all words -- and it wouldn't surprise me if they were!
