Tea Rejuvenates


Tea helps our head and heart.
Tea medicates most every part.
Tea rejuvenates the very old.
Tea warms the hands of those who're cold.

J. Jonkers

Although I don't recall where I first found this picture, it is one of my favorites because it tells a story and elicits an emotional response from the viewer. This could be your Grandma, or mine. . .and nothing sounds nicer than sipping a cup of tea with Grandmother!

  3. This reminds me of coming home from college and sitting down for a chat and a cup of tea with my mother. I can still see the teapot, which has since disappeared from her belongings.

  6. What a wonderful week your having. I 'll go make another cup of tea. I had a nice ginger cup earlier. It is wonderful for digestion. I love green tea and stevia too.
