As I have mentiond in my last post, where there is no tea it only means that there is tea. Actually it is amazing how I was made fully aware of that reasoning by a child in fifth grade where I was working in school as assisting teacher.
It happened one winter at the school I was working, a child asked me why I seldom go out and play with snow or take a looooong walk like others do. I said it´s because I´m asian and am not use to cold. How about you, don´t you think it´s cold outside? I asked the child back. And the child said: Yes, it´s cold, but how can you ever feel warm, if you won´t feel the cold outside. Well, I was speechless for a loooong looong time, but since then it has change all my attitude towards the swedish winter, and never had problem going out in cold anymore.
When "there is no tea", it means "there is tea". And this philosophic reasoning comes specially during my morning, one and only, cup of coffee for the whole day. And also when some of my teahouse´s guest come forward with some guilt of being a coffee drinker.
And for those who are coffee drinker, but wish to completely convert to tea drinking but is having a hard because of what they are right now: No hurry, continue drinking your coffee for the time being. If you can´t drink tea, that only means you can drink tea. If in your life right now you´d say that there is no tea, it only means there is tea when you´re ready for it.You can also read this on Facebook.








De har drömmar och mål (även de förvirrade), de dela med sig otroliga tuffa livs erfarenheter, tron i livet, idéer av vad som kan vara bra i samhället, och med mera. Midsommar afton till - dagen räckte inte att lyssna på vad de har för kloka saker att säga. Som tur är så midsommar brukar vara en övernattning fest vilket betyder också att bilar kan komma och gå upp till nästa dagen för de som blev bjudna av andra och behöver kryss festa. I såna här högtid, när man inte dricker och blir däför frågat att hämta någon annan med bil, får man se hur till exempel Grebbestad ser ut som The Dawn of the living dead vid typ kl 2 eller 3 på morgon.

























Women in China were always traditionally compared to phoenix and men to dragon, which differences may also observed even in martial arts, where men and women were also taught different technics and movement.
