In stark contrast to yesterday’s grumpy day, this morning I awoke in fine spirits. This was particularly evident as I took my first sip of chai for the day. It really hit the spot.
There is something about that first sip of tea of a morning. It is as if I am tasting the new day itself. In that moment, there is only the taste, magically melding with the soft morning light and enchanting my not-yet-busy-with-thoughts mind. For a moment at least, I am tasting life. And in that, there is an immense, serene joy.
