A Toast to Tea

There are a number of things I love. One of them: tea. It is simple: I love tea. It all began with one cup of chamomile in the marketplace of Northern Michigan University. For someone who use to hate hot drinks, I now declare myself an addict. It was love from the first sip.

But to me tea has become more than just a drink. It has enveloped my life. It has been there through the ups and downs. The hopeless romance, the burdened week of finals, time spent home, the accident, and new beginnings.

I sit here with a toast to new beginnings. I toast to a cup of tea.
