How Do You Take Your Tea

My sister puts 2 tea bags into 1 cup Takes 1 out then drinks it with still 1 in it To me that is no longer tea but has become soup and rather disgusting But that is how she takes it and makes her happy And given the fact i don't understand and am expected to drink it Who am i to judge or tell her that's not right or tell her she should take hers like mine Because although the simplest thing as expressing one's opinion at the time if gone unchecked Can lead down a slippery slope and empowered into feeling that that's ok and you are right Rather than realising though you may indeed well be right Should it not be up to each individual to make live and stand by their decision Otherwise how will they learn from their own mistakes and build character traits To help them when they cannot call upon you to take the difficult decisions on their behalf

don’t sweat the small stuff.., unless you are serving tea at a formal Japanese ceremony and it better be right or it will rain dishonor! :)

Yeah tricky 1 this 1 its a nice sentiment and sentimental but not really realistic Otherwise the small things lead onto bigger things
