Might have to wait a few minutes for the bottles to come through, but it's a time killer nonetheless

I sent my favourite poem...
But to every mind there openeth,
A way, and way, and away,
A high soul climbs the highway,
And the low soul gropes the low,
And in between on the misty flats,
The rest drift to and fro.
But to every man there openeth,
A high way and a low,
And every mind decideth,
The way his soul shall go.
One ship sails East,
And another West,
By the self-same winds that blow,
'Tis the set of the sails
And not the gales,
That tells the way we go.
Like the winds of the sea
Are the waves of time,
As we journey along through life,
'Tis the set of the soul,
That determines the goal,
And not the calm or the strife.
But to every mind there openeth,
A way, and way, and away,
A high soul climbs the highway,
And the low soul gropes the low,
And in between on the misty flats,
The rest drift to and fro.
But to every man there openeth,
A high way and a low,
And every mind decideth,
The way his soul shall go.
One ship sails East,
And another West,
By the self-same winds that blow,
'Tis the set of the sails
And not the gales,
That tells the way we go.
Like the winds of the sea
Are the waves of time,
As we journey along through life,
'Tis the set of the soul,
That determines the goal,
And not the calm or the strife.

ok who sent this gob full ???
There is only so much sand
in the hourglass. Who gets it?
Clovis Chappell, a minister from a century
back, used to tell the story of two paddle boats:
They left Memphis about the same time,
traveling down the Mississippi River to
New Orleans. As they traveled side by side,
sailors from one vessel made a few remarks
about the snail’s pace of the other.
Words were exchanged. Challenges were made.
And the race began. Competition became vicious
as the two boats roared through the Deep South.
One boat began falling behind. Not enough fuel.
There had been plenty of coal for the trip,
but not enough for a race. As the boat dropped
back, an enterprising young sailor took some
of the ship’s cargo and tossed it into the ovens.
When the sailors saw that the supplies burned
as well as the coal, they fueled their boat with
the material they had been assigned to transport.
They ended up winning the race, but burned their
cargo. God has entrusted cargo to us, too:
children, spouses, friends. Our job is to do our
part in seeing that this cargo reaches its destination. ddm/PEI

Ah HA.
One mum of three ranting about her kids in Canada, one japanese I couldn't understand and a junk one.
Replied to all and threw the junk away like a good green boy.

My Message I got this morning :
why am I not sleeping right now?
---
perhaps you were an owl in a past life.
from bearfoot - on an island off the sth coast of
Victoria Australia
------------
---
I had the same problem last night. I could not get to sleep. Sherry in Texas.
---
perhaps because it is broad daylight?
or maybe because you can't tear yourself away from this remarkably addicting website?

Finally got one!
Wasn't really worth the wait.
why is it that I always get such boring messages. Someone out there must have more to say than hello or this is such and such city and state.

I killed my dog and had an affair with my neighbor, but only after I pooped in a bag and lit it on fire on my mother's porch.
