I admit it I'm a tea addict. Admitting it is one of the first things we have
to do here at tea-drinkers anonymous. I think it was peer pressure. Do you want a cup of tea people would say? I just said yes. I wasn't thinking. You know how it is. You don't want to stand out. You want to be cool. You want to be accepted. I just thought it would be ok. Just twenty years later I am reduced to working for a living. I must have my tea. I commit acts of web design just to get the money to feed my habit. It's a wonderful thing tea, but life can seem meaningless without it. Beware fellow tea drinkers, this could happen to you.

You certainly can learn a thing or two from tea drinkers. I just hadn't thought of not trying to stop. Brilliant! Christopher www.SlowDownNow.org www.christopherrichards.com |

I also love my tea.. have it everyday.. infact.. I recently sent away &
received my order of 52 tea varieties.. which totals 500 tea bags.. which will add to my already large tea collection.. between herbals, flavored, green tea, exotic, oriental. But I have to mention that I also like to have my coffee too! ..Mindy |
