You have brains in your head.
You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself in any direction you choose.
You're on your own.
And you know what you know.
You are the guy who'll decide where to go.
~Dr. Seuss

God wisely designed the human body so that we can neither pat our own backs nor kick ourselves too easily. ~Author Unknown

Your love letters were confetti,
I tore them up, my hands were sweaty

Mugwort...one of the criminals of the plant world!

Wormwood(aka Mugwort)-it's scientific name is pretty cool too-putting some in your pillowcase can induce vivid dreams.

Preaching to the choir reminds me of...

Barking up the wrong tree!~Thanks Mac!

"Remember, Mugwort, what you made known,
What you arranged at the Great proclamation.
You were called Una, the oldest of herbs,
you have power against three and against thirty,
you have power against poison and against infection,
you have power against the loathsome foe roving through the land."
-Nine Herbs Charm, 11th century


Mugwort
