Happy Tea

Time for tea and inspiration ... happiness in a teacup

Why 'curious and playful' is my new mantra

curious and playful
​Three little words are my key to happiness and peace of mind.

I use them when I notice that I am thinking too much, when my thinking is not productive but draining. I use them when I feel uncomfortable with a situation. I use them whenever I feel overcome by whatever is going on inside me or around me.

"Curious and playful." Remembering these words halts me right where I am. They reawaken the child within; the fearless child who is authentic and spontaneous, who simply likes to play, even in the shadows.
Curious steps me out of my thoughts into a curiosity about the present moment, and the next, and the next, ever flowing. Curious is focused on the present, alert like a cat watching a mouse hole; there is no past or future, only now.

​Playful is a reminder that life is but a game of "me in the world"; a traveller on the adventure of life. Playful helps me to stay light-hearted in any situation, with the understanding that everything happens for a reason, I've only got to dance with it; no resistance, just flow.

Curiosity brings me to reception, wonderment, inspiration, and gratitude. Playfulness allows me to feel free to be spontaneous me, without judgement. 

"Curious and playful" is my mantra to flow with the now ... happily.

    This blog is my writing indulgence. It is the kind of writing that emerged from me long before writing became my profession.

    Happy Tea is inspired by my human experience as I explore reality and my place in it.

    Life is lived and perceived. Presence and awareness make every detail magnificent - like a sip of tea that tastes like a universe of gratitude.

    Find your own inspiration with Happy Tea.
