Who knew I'd be so excited about tea?

 So nearly a year ago I realized that tea wasn't just water with stuff in it, like herbal cool-aid or the other hot thing you can drink besides cafe'.  Unfortunately I began sharing pots of tea with someone who later did me great emotional and nearly spiritual harm.  So...I stopped drinking tea.

I made my first pot last night and he didn't jump out of it.  No memories, no anger, just me missing the aroma and potent flavor of Earl Gray, hot. (Star Trek geek out right there, whoops!)

I caught a lyric from a live version of a Jill Scott song as I sipped, thinking as I began to journal.

"You broke me but I'm healing..." Thank you friends and family.

I wrote...

"You broke me but I'm healing..."  Thank you Gods.

I sang outloud to MYSELF...

"You broke me but I'm healing!"

Thanks to my own courage, couldn't do it without ya.

Ashe.

healing, tea
