Frequent Tea drinkers are sure to have ten precious luxuries that are priceless and hard for others to replicate. Do you have all these luxuries?
Taste
Drinking tea is, in fact, enjoying the process of the tea. In the hearts of tea drinkers, they seek a specific taste and do not choose to add other flavors, as they desire the pure taste in their hearts.
Because they do not have such troubles, the simplest tea flavor has already taken root in their hearts, which is a kind of fate that money cannot buy.
Health
Tea drinkers understand that drinking tea is about health preservation. They are willing to spend some money on health and tea early on. Because they know that when illness strikes, spending large sums on treatment and health supplements is not as effective as drinking tea regularly.
When drinking tea becomes a habit, health preservation naturally follows suit, improving one's physical condition and boosting immunity, making it difficult to fall ill.
Youthfulness
The youthfulness that comes from drinking tea is both internal and external.
Tea drinkers always seem youthful, as their minds remain young due to the flavors of time infused into their hearts, settling down and keeping vitality alive; externally, they also look younger because drinking tea detoxifies the body, preventing various skin issues, and effectively clearing free radicals, delaying aging.
Looks are shaped by tea, and those who drink tea will only become more youthful over time.
Patience
To Brew a good Cup of tea, there must be a process, a truth understood by all tea drinkers, so they are generally not too hasty.
They patiently wait for the right water temperature, gently pour the water, and carefully decant the tea. A too restless heart can easily overlook the importance of each step in achieving the perfect tea flavor.
The aged teas that become more fragrant over time also demonstrate the patience of tea drinkers. To bring out the best flavor and quality of the tea, they are willing to let time work its magic, without complaint but with anticipation instead.
Focus
Too much information and too many distractions can only lead to increasing confusion.
However, tea drinkers know what they want, focusing on things that interest them and specializing in a particular field, which is a rare quality.
When heating water, they focus on controlling the temperature; when brewing, they focus on the timing of the tea-water blend; when tasting, they concentrate on the aroma and flavor. Because of this focus, their minds are free from distractions.
Enjoyment
If you ask someone nowadays what they've been up to, the answer is usually simple: busy, very busy.
Tea drinkers know how to find leisure amidst busyness and live in the present. Because they know that being busy is a lifelong affair, no matter how busy or tired they are, they make time to enjoy a good cup of tea.
Doing what interests you is never a waste of time.
Pick Up and Put Down
Not only a gesture of drinking tea, picking up and putting down is also an attitude towards life.
With good tea in front of you, pick it up and drink; with good opportunities, seize them bravely. When it comes to your happiness, hold on tightly, and don't think too much, as it might rob you of your initial courage.
A life overly filled with worries, where every big and small concern weighs heavily, is never satisfied. We cannot change what has happened, but we can change our attitude towards these events. Letting go of the past is also a way of freeing ourselves.
Generosity
Drinking tea alone has one flavor, while sharing tea with three people can yield three different flavors. Tea drinkers know that the value of good tea lies in bringing it into the hearts of more people, and that sharing joy is better than enjoying it alone.
When they meet a like-minded friend, tea drinkers are eager to share their treasured teas with them.
Confidence
Elegant clothing, enchanting perfumes, and exquisite jewelry may be costly luxuries, but they may not necessarily give you the inner confidence that comes from within.
It's said that tea drinkers exude a certain aura, which is true. Among a crowd, the demeanor of tea drinkers seems uniquely different, calm yet firm, with smiles that convey confidence and warmth.
The deeper their understanding of tea, the clearer their pursuit of a certain feeling becomes. In dealing with people and situations, they know what they want and what kind of person they wish to be. Knowing oneself is the foundation of self-confidence.
Gratitude
Those who harbor gratitude can go further and appreciate the true value of a cup of tea.
Tea growers rely on the sky, tea makers on the earth, and tea brewers on the people they serve. This small cup of tea embodies the wisdom of “harmony between heaven and man.” A word of thanks is not just for the taste but also for nature's gifts.
The true “luxuries” needed in life are a higher quality of living and a better attitude towards life.
