It’s the day after Christmas, and I have to admit the holiday is not the same for me anymore. Not that I’m a grinch, but the holiday seems to have less significance to me the older I get. Over the past few years, presents have played a smaller role, and when you take away the presents, you have to look at what you are left with, unfortunately for me, there isn’t much left. Our traditions are centered around food and gifts. Being forced to look at what the holiday means to me is shocking. It’s empty and lonely, but not hopeless. Im at a turning point, and have decided that one of my resolutions for 2012 is to give the holidays some personal meaning and start forming new traditions.
Tea: Paklum Tips, special white. Smooth, slight grassy taste, but gentle. No hints of sweetness and no aftertaste. Pleasant but nothing special.
