Tea Moment: A Drink to Remember
Myriads of things linger in my mind every time I see someone drinking a cup of tea. Lessons that I have encountered in life crawl my imagination when I ponder while sipping in contemplative manner this kind of aromatic beverage. It reminds me of a genial History teacher who told us that tea plays a significant role in history. Much of my being a nationalistic citizen I attributed with this teacher. She taught us how to appreciate the past without forgetting the challenge of the future. In one of her lessons, she related that thousands of years ago, tea was already being used by the Chinese, Tibetans, Vietnamese and other groups of people in East Asia and Southeast Asia as a form of beverage to relax their trouble mind and body. It has been said that the calm temperament of Asian people is attributed to the practice of drinking tea which accordingly has soothing and relaxing effects to the body. Tea drinking transcends the commonplace. Well-settled is the fact that in Japan and China, a tea ceremony is a usual cultural ritual. A tea party is normally associated to a very important social event. Reminiscing this lesson makes me feel nostalgic of my high school days with my history teacher.
