They say times have changed. From loyalty and brotherhood to profits and benefits. But in this cup of tea, some values are timeless. What do you seek in your connections today? 🤔

🍵 Tea fades with each pour →
💫 Life deepens with every steep.
This is the sacred paradox:
What weakens in the cup
Grows stronger in the soul.

🔇 When tea speaks:
💧 Water’s hymn.
🍃 Leaves’ landing.
🌬️ Your breath’s echo.
The loudest silence you’ll ever taste.

Sun and shadow on this June morning as we sipped our tea, and flowers from our garden, which my sweetheart photographed so closely they became a beautiful abstraction. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #sun #shadow #hydrangea #geranium #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
Gray and quiet for this morning’s tea. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea in a #yunomi by @hpbloomer #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
The oakleaf hydrangea by the kitchen door are opening like little bursts of fireworks. A light rain began to fall as we finished our tea and it sounds so beautiful. #teameditation #morningritual #rain #puerh #tea #oakleafhydrangea #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
The Joe Pye weed is already about 3 feet high, the oakleaf hydrangea has begun to flower, and spring is quickly turning toward summer. The jaunty little glass bird on our tea tray tuned me in to the sparrows and blue jays calling as we sipped our tea. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea
My sweetheart chose a cup I made of dark clay with a thread of blue embedded in it. Lovely sprays of mock orange bobbed behind our tea tray as 3 mourning doves sat on the telephone wires, puffed up against the wind and rain. #teameditation #morningritual #mockorange #mourningdoves #rain #puerh #tea
Solo tea this morning, reflecting new leaves and cloudy sky. #teameditation #morningritual #gunpowdergreen #tea #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
tea and beauty on this balmy spring morning. #teameditation #morningritual #dogwood #spring #puerh #tea in #pinchpot #teacups #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
There is a wonderful Japanese word, shakkei, which means “borrowed scenery” and it came to mind as I glimpsed a bit of our back neighbor’s garden through a break in the Leland branches. Another neighbor’s enormous oak has new bright green leaves, beautiful against the sky. #teameditation
As the dogwood bracts fade, the Japanese maple begins to shine, its new leaves a deep bright red against the backdrop of the enormous Lelands. Mom gave us this tree and it always brings to mind walking with my sweetheart through autumn maples in Kyoto. #teameditation #morningritual #missyoumom
My sweetheart picked up a little branch of maple from the sidewalk this morning on our perambulations with Micky, and the samaras were so beautiful against the blue cloth on our tea tray. #teameditation #morningritual #maple #samara #puerh #tea #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
The neighborhood giants are leafing out and our garden now has shade for our morning tea. #teameditation #morningritual #borrowedscenery #elm #maple #puerh #tea #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
The dogwood bracts danced in the wind as we sipped our tea. #teameditation #morningritual #oolong #tea #dogwood #apring #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
My sweetheart cut a couple of spice viburnum blooms from the back garden for our tea on the front porch in this drizzly morning. When I jostled the vase a few blossoms fell off - their moment is almost over. Spring feels like it is moving so fast this year. #teameditation #morningritual #tea
Two new teacups for tea this morning, fresh from the kiln. One pinched from black sculpture clay with a wonderful rough surface, the other white clay impressed with a stamp made from tree bark in our garden, enhanced with cobalt. Three cups of tea with my sweetheart as the birds sang. #teameditation
Tea meditation slows me down for a few moments each morning so I can take in the spring unfurling in our little garden. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #dogwood #spring #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
I love the spring moment when the dogwood bracts are reflected in my tea. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #dogwood #spring #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
The dogwood is ready to step in to the spring spotlight for her star turn. #teameditation #morningritual #dogwood #rubyoolong #tea #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
For the birds and bugs we plan to plant natives from here on in, but every spring when they bloom I am grateful we planted Korean Spice viburnum in the back garden many years ago. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #koreanspiceviburnum #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
Serviceberry in full bloom, dogwood bracts emerging, lime green Norway maple flowers puffing out. Three cups of tea on a still spring morning, flight path shifted so skies are quiet. #teameditation #morningritual #serviceberry #dogwood #norwaymaple #puerh #tea #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
Leaves in big mug 🍃 feels much warmer than it is but happy that I can sit outside to start my day.
Good Friday is a day of solemnity and reflection. “Even in the darkest hour, there is light ahead.”
#teameditation #leavesinabowl
Serviceberry blooms and the last of the cherry blossoms against the very blue sky. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #serviceberry #cherry #spring #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
Tea in the back garden, admiring the serviceberry in full exuberant bloom. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #serviceberry #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
Spring’s next act is beginning - blueberry buds are swelling, garlic is getting tall, mock orange leaves are beginning to emerge, our across-the-street neighbors’ weeping cherry is in full bloom. #teameditation #morningritual #puerh #tea #spring #prayingforpeace #prayingforsafereturn
