At 10:30 am yesterday, I heard the postman´s car rushing into the compound. This package came so fast I didn´t immediately connect it with the postman that is now ringing the door. I opened the door wondering what have I ordered else this week. I exchanged pleasant good morning with the postman and signed out the package. I still didn´t see the sender, instead thought it was the kimono that I was supposed to be receiving too any day now. I looked at the package, and almost jump up with joy. Of course .... the tea samples from Taiwan!!


I opened the box. Look! So many tea samples, in tiny beautiful packets. And to my surprise, almost jumping out of the box, came these many tiny cute little a d o r a b l e frogs, in wonderful CD and postcards. I played the CD right away. You can imagine my joy! I always thought these tiny creatures are beautiful and very awesome feature to have at home. In chinese culture it is believed they give luck and happiness. It´s true in my case, because they really give me so much joy. And now, they make my (none-religious) karma yoga more delightful. I wash the dishes, and the frogs sing kriik kriik kriik, I mop the floor and they go treet treet treet. Oh my, they are so adorables they don´t even have to turn into prince to be lovables.

Anyway, I am happy because this package means, with collaboration and expert guidance of our tea advisor and the Tea Masters in Taiwan, and continued learning from the blog Teaparker, aimfully great betterment for our tea collections will be achieved continously. Aren´t the frog really working their magic? I notice, that in life, after schools and colleges, people who never want to stop learning seems to, conciously or unconciously, choose their own mentors.

I absolutely could never say I´m an angel, but the only thing I can definitely say is I love polishing my karma yoga. And for that, as karma really means, I don´t usually get immediate materialistic rewards, but rather I don´t only ran into good people, but into good mentors too. It makes Chadao, my life´s way of tea then always very pleasant road to take. That is probably why my happiness feels very absolute, and I´d even dare say in any circumstances.
