No matter what color your skin,
or what language you speak,
when you sip a cup of clear tea giving off a delicate fragrance,
and when you feel deeply that it helps not only produce saliva and slack the thirst,
dispel sleepiness and weariness,
but also prevent disease and benefit health,
you cannot help but praise highly its wonderful effects,
and hold in esteem the people who produce it.

Something to think on today.
A lovely homage to those who pick and process the tea I enjoy every day. It does us well to remember where our food and drink come from.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely picture, Marilyn. Those look like weeds in the distance. I just took a picture of the weeds on my drive to the country. Oh Yes, tea is definitely one of the good things in life. : )

WONDERFUL image, Marilyn! And tea is a wondrous thing... it can "cure" so much... :) Happy week, my friend ((HUGS))
ReplyDeleteOne of your most beautiful images! I love imagining you walking through all these spots with your camera and teapot and setting the perfect thing.
