I could not store this super cute teddy bear postcard without sharing it.  Postcrosser Gabi from Germany sent this one.  The postcard features a German proverb that translates “Wait and drink tea.”  According to Gabi this means “wait and see.”  Good advice for those of us who are quick to judge or who want to rush in and fix every difficult situation and person we run across.  Sometimes, it’s necessary to preserve our sanity and take our time–or “wait and see”–how things will play out. “Wait and drink tea” makes perfect sense to me!  A piping hot cup of tea usually gives me peace over a matter, slows me down and sheds light on or lends clarity to certain things for me.  In fact, I think I’ll have a cup now…
