Default What is on the back of your tea box?

I was noticing that on my the backs of some of my boxes of tea, there are inspirational stories and things. Thought I would share one that I think relates well to this weight loss journey we are on, and I would love hear what yours say.

Celestial Seasonings Moroccan Pomegranate Red Tea:

A Matter Of Perspective

"They call it a mountain," whispered the Monkey to the Zebra. "Mountain!" cried the Zebra. "It's but a bump between the veldt's green edge and the sparkling river. A grassy bump, a shady rill, a slope that makes me sing as I gallop to the water's edge."
"Perhaps," alloed the Monkey. "But you have four legs, and it is easier for you to race along the slope than it is for me."
"It's a matter of perspective, not legs," argued the Zebra. "A mountain is only as large as your mind chooses to make it." The Zebra knelt, and the Monkey climbed onto his back, holding tightly to his mane. "I see exactly what you mean," the Monkey said, his view forever altered by his place atop the strong back of his friend. -Debra Bokur

So thanks, all of you, for being my Zebras!
