Teabag Tag and Fortune Cookie Wisdom

Last night I had dinner at LeeAnn Chin's, usually I don't pay much attention to the bland and oft times silly fortunes inside the cookie.  But last night I had one that made me think.

"Be not simply good; be good for something."

Hmm...  That one is good enough to ponder I thought, so I brought it home.  Before bed, I made myself a cup of Yogi Ginger tea.  The teabag tag also was interesting and close enough to the fortune cookie tag that you could not ignore the power of both. 

"If you see good, learn something.  If you see bad, learn what not to be."

This was no coincidence.  I have yet to puzzle out what I am supposed to do, but the messages can't be ignored.  I am going to meditate this.

"When the heart is at ease, the body is healthy."  Chinese Proverb.

I wish it were that simple to have good health.  Chinese Medicine does have a point though.  We can't find health if our spirit/heart is troubled.  We can't sleep well, we don't eat well, we don't take care of ourselves like we should so we don't have optimum health.  When we take care of our spirit, we are taking care of our mind.
