My friends are always laughing at my love of tea. I carry teabags around in my purse, and drink at least 4 cups (unsweetened, of course!) Of green tea every day. Tea is really one of my life's enjoyments!
Interestingly enough, as I'm getting more involved in Japanese culture, I found out a little bit more about their tea ceremony. The Japanese Tea Ceremony signifies that evey human encounter is a singular occasion which can never recur again in exactly the same way. Imagine how much more we'd value our interactions if we thought about each of them like that!
The Idea: Take some time for tea. Instead of just considering it a beverage, use it as an opportunity to catch up with a friend, or just relax and savor the good things in your life.
The Cost: Not more than $10.
The Benefit: You will realize the importance of each moment of your life (or at least the ones spent drinking tea), and recognize that that moment will never occur again in the same way.
