• Striving Upward -

  
  

  When we were young and so keenly felt our lacking, we saw the others high above us and thought, "If only we could reach them!"  Now here we are, up in childhood's ether, and we know a thing or two.  Yet still we strive upward, as if for some exotic fruit hidden among tangled branches.  Some would say, "Be happy where you are!"  But we are happy, you see.  Besides, it's not a question of happiness, it's a question of "human-ness."  Whether on the mountain path or open sea or printed page, we must always press on.  We expect no miracles.  After all, it is only ourselves we hope to find.  ___ David Jacoby

  
  

  The above quote from the box of Peach Apricot Honeybush Tea by Celestial Seasonings.  I hope you are having a happy contented and very human day.  Strive for exotic fruits and taste of clean air.
