Tea Making is Like Life: Through Experience, We Achieve Perfection

01

Tea said to Water, “We seem to have met before.” It loves its serenity, allowing its vibrant source of life to flourish.

Water said to Tea, “All encounters are reunions.” It loves its elegance, possessing a beauty that captivates with a single glance and fragrance.

Tea, from the moment it left the tea tree, looked forward to meeting Water.

Water awakens Tea, and Tea fulfills Water; Water contains Tea, and Tea enriches Water; Tea is reborn through Water, and Water becomes fragrant because of Tea.

The encounter between Tea and Water nourishes life and stirs the human soul.

Brewing tea is like life, experiencing various things to achieve the right balance.

The first brewing, the tea hasn’t fully opened, only a young and astringent bitterness, like a young man’s naivete, ‘Falling in love with the upstairs apartment, for the sake of new words and strong arguments.’

‘Two-cup tea’ can be called ‘tea,’ it tastes strong with a considerable astringent and bitter flavor, but you can already taste the aroma; at this time, a person has learned a lot, embarking on a journey to the world, ‘New wine is better than ten thousand, the fifty-year old highwayman, when meeting, the spirit is for a drink, tied horses high buildings weeping willow edges.’

The third brewing is a true reflection of the quality of the tea's flavor and aroma, this cup of tea is the most mellow and sweet, like a person in middle age, a sense of achievement and pride, the satisfaction of having achieved results, ‘Climbing the highest peak, to overlook all the mountains small.’

Finally ‘four cups of water’, using the word ‘light’ to describe is more appropriate.

Only the aftertaste remains, with no other flavor, it came so quickly, and life has entered the twilight period, life is already light, ‘A carriage and few horses in front of the door’, ‘The setting sun is beautiful, but just nearing dusk’, perhaps still ‘However, it’s a good autumn’s day’, possessing a unique flavor.

The bond between Tea and Water, perhaps it was the small tree swaying beside the stream ten thousand years ago, finally holding hands and walking together for this lifetime.

The relationship between Water and Tea, perhaps it was the dew clinging to the tender leaves a thousand years ago, now finally leaning towards each other, promising...

Flavor is enhanced by Water, and heart is calmed by Tea; Tea finally falls silent, and Water finally has no sound.

Tea cools when Water is quiet; Water is still when Tea is clear.

Time is distant, and things are serene; there is a sentimental mood, like fragrant tea; there is a life like clear water...

Water is sweet and flavorful, and Tea is a pleasant dream.

Tea is no longer there, but there are still mountains and trees.

Tea remains serene and quietly waiting, still searching and yearning, but when raising an eye, tears are flowing.

A cup of clear tea, a quiet heart: ‘The character “Tea” when split open is “A person in the woods and plants.”

A lifetime, like a season of autumn leaves, experiencing cold and warm, and the intricacies of the world, and a connection of meaning between a person and tea.

Life’s ups and downs, like a cup of tea being steeped, bitter like tea, fragrant like tea. Less name, less profit, no struggle, no plunder.

Floating life, like a cup of clear tea, to dispel worries and sorrows!

Everything is natural, everything is otherworldly, everything is immersed in a beautiful and distant landscape, all are the elegant beauty of life. Currently, lightly ask: ‘Are you someone’s tea, waiting for which cup of water?’

Water is gone, but there are mountains and trees remaining.
