DAY 159
The Book of Tea
茶の本
📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
Do you have the space in your mind to discover beauty within imperfection?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Reading this slim book I had taken for a practical manual about tea, I came to see how the smallest moments of daily life can become art. In a faint crack on a teacup or an asymmetrical form, the author reads instead the human longing for perfection. The way of tea is not merely the act of drinking tea, but the building of a quiet refuge within this fleeting, imperfect life. When I am weary of a daily life that endlessly demands I become perfect, I slip softly into the warm, teacup-like sentences this book offers.
