      Read this today and loved it so here you go.

      Kahlil Gibran on children

      Your children are not your children.
      They are the sons and daughters of Life's longing for itself.
      They come through you but not from you,
      And though they are with you yet they belong not to you.

      You may give them your love but not your thoughts,
      For they have their own thoughts.
      You may house their bodies but not their souls,
      For their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow,
      which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
      You may strive to be like them,
      but seek not to make them like you.
      For life goes not backward nor tarries with yesterday.

      You are the bows from which your children
      as living arrows are sent forth.
      The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite,
      and He bends you with His might
      that His arrows may go swift and far.
      Let your bending in the archer's hand be for gladness;
      For even as He loves the arrow that flies,
      so He loves also the bow that is stable.

      Maybe so. Maybe not

                            But you've got all those IPAs that are perfect for warm weather drinking.  Surely you're not going to complain about this golden opportunity?

                                    Holy shit FedEx shipping is fast from IHUK.  It took one day to get my last item from IH and I have another package coming that was shipped this morning (AZ time) and will be here tomorrow.  That's insane.  Only drawback is they won't leave it at my front door and I have to make a 30 minute drive (both ways) to pick it up from the FedEx drop spot.  Either way, I don't really mind.  Good job FedEx.

                                      I also got my 888-RE ridiculously fast. Also they came in the morning right before my wife left so I didn’t have to get them

                                        We started to use FedEx as they guarantee next working day anywhere in the States. We can manually take signature requirements off, so I am sure they would then leave it at your door - obviously this is down to you in trusting your neighbours…!

                                          Rest in Power Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin

                                          I have so many fond memories of Saturdays cleaning my childhood home with my siblings while my parents played records of this wonderful woman's music or late nights when my parents had company and again  this woman's wonderful music was a part of the playlist.  I'm certain so many people have fond memories that contain the Queen's music.

                                          What a wonderful way to touch so many people's lives.

                                            @Alex what do I need to do to manually take the signature requirements off?  Do I just put a note in the comments for each order?
