    Thich Nhat Hanh
    “Tea is an act complete in its simplicity.
    When I drink tea, there is only me and the tea.
    The rest of the world dissolves.
    There are no worries about the future.
    No dwelling on past mistakes.
    Tea is simple: loose-leaf tea, hot pure water, a cup.
    I inhale the scent, tiny delicate pieces of the tea floating above the cup.
    I drink the tea, the essence of the leaves becoming a part of me.
    I am informed by the tea, changed.
    This is the act of life, in one pure moment, and in this act the truth of the world suddenly becomes revealed: all the complexity, pain, drama of life is a pretense, invented in our minds for no good purpose.
    There is only the tea, and me, converging.”
    Thich Nhat Hanh
