Esta ideia aterrifica-me
Wild Geese
Mary Oliver
You do not have to be good.
You do not have to walk on your knees
for a hundred miles through the desert repenting.
You only have to let the soft animal of your body
love what it loves.
Tell me about despair, yours, and I will tell you mine.
Meanwhile the world goes on.
Meanwhile the sun and the clear pebbles of the rain
are moving

Again and again, the living world met me where human knowledge fell short.
I have loved tea for as long as I can remember. Not only the act of drinking it, but also the culture and history that follows it. I started drinking matcha a few years ago, when only in some shops you could find it, as it is for me a meditation practice every morning that makes me feels grounded and calms my adhd brain.
I too play a part, of course, in the whitewashing of this drink, but so have other teas and coffee. I will try to only participate from places that I fully trust that fully respect its farmers
