Drinking tea is just a way of life. It's not important to understand tea; what's important is drinking it every day!

We often meet friends who mention tea cautiously, saying they don't understand it, and even if they drink tea, they just drink it casually. Regardless of whether this cautious attitude is modest or not, understanding tea isn't that important for most people. If you try a tea and find it pleasant, and can continue drinking it, that's enough.

Tea is not homework, not a constraint. It's not only those who "understand" who are qualified to love tea. Drinking tea is an enjoyment. With a mindset of enjoyment and relaxation, without initially worrying about understanding it, you will gradually come to appreciate it more. If you start by deciding you don't understand and feel distant from tea, won't you understand less and less?

You might think that those who deal with tea every day, or those who speak very professionally about it, must surely understand tea well. But if you really ask them, most will say their knowledge is limited. This isn't modesty. Tea culture is vast and profound. Each type of tea has its own characteristics, just like people in the world. Who dares to say they can understand every person? Understanding tea? Not understanding tea? Is it really that important?

Actually, whether you understand tea or not really isn't important; what's important is drinking tea every day.

With good tea in hand, one finds solitude, two find amusement, and three achieve refinement.

Stealing leisure time from the mundane world is truly one of life's pleasures.

It is said that tea can clear the mind. So when drinking tea,

put aside your status, put aside vanity, put aside greed.

Tea cannot bear so much.

With an ordinary heart, drink the clear tea in your cup, and enjoy a pleasant moment.

Drinking tea is really just a way of life.
