CREEPERS, COUCH AND A CUP OF TEA

Drizzly morning, creepers growing on roofs, calm breeze, comfortable couch and a cup of tea – for a nature lover like me, Sunday morning cannot be better than this. The serenity such combination offers is hard to find and express as well. Honestly speaking, I don’t expect everyone to see the exception of this situation.

There might be nothing exceptional in enjoying a cup of tea on Sunday. But, having it amongst nature, away from the bustle and din of metros, certainly makes your Sunday special. It revitalizes you. It feels as if every molecule of your body is drawing its share of energy, ready to release it when they are set into motion again. But, not everyone has the eye to admire this beauty neither the ability to understand nature’s language.

Fortunately, I’m blessed to be among those rare species who understand its significance. I am bestowed with the talent to harness its energy and maintain internal peace as nature does. I’m lucky to be among the ones who have the ability to have a cup of tea and chat with creepers while whispering wishes to the wind.

While staring at the greenery, I saw the trees waving at me and asking me to savor my morning tea. I smiled back at them and said, “Isn’t it unusual to have tea with you all?” They were taken aback and asked, “And why do you say so darling?” I took a sip and said, “Because this one’s odd one out – manmade.”


They said, “Silly girl! Where do you get that tea from?” I thought, “Tea leaves of course – derived from nature.” I smiled at my silliness and continued enjoying my Sunday morning tea.
