Mindfulness

By StaringalePublished 3 years ago 3 min read

It is sunny morning after examination, I sent the entire yesterday relaxing and unwinding. In the quiet hush of the morning, with the sun glowing brightly in the sky and painting the sky in hues of gold, it seems like a ritual that promises a burst of freshness and a touch of zest to the start of the day. I set myself to make one of my favourite Arabian style- Fruit Tea, the atmosphere is soon filled with the aroma of brewing tea leaves hinting at the awakening flavors soon to be unleashed. Choosing between plum and orange, I went with orange don't know why but it seemed right. The bright colored perfectly riped orange was carefully sliced revealing vibrant, juicy segments that shimmer in the morning light.

Juicing few slices and adding it to the tea and letting the tea boil to infuse the natural sweetness and a subtle tanginess of orange with bitter but fragrant tea leaves, creates a unique blend of flavours that dance across your taste buds and leaving you wanting for more. Turning of the stove and carefully pouring the tea and topping it with a slice of orange to impart not only the vibrant color but also a burst of flavor to the brew, symbolizing the first Ray's of sun that gently arouses the day from the slumber. Taking it outside in the garden I sat down to enjoy it, this infusion of orange tea in the morning stillness is akin to capturing the essence of dawn itself.

Breathing in deeply while enjoying the morning breeze with cup cradled in one hand, I took the first sip and it was a revelation. The velvety liquid with the essence of citrus dances across the palate playing it zesty tones. The briskness of tea and citrusy brightness of oranges create a symphony of flavors, a harmonious blend of bitter and sweet, invigorating the senses and setting a lively tone for the day ahead. The gentle rustling of the leaves, chirping of the birds and a light blowing wind were all conspiring against me by lulling me back to sleep.

Rubbing my eyes to wipe away the sleep I sipped on the orange infused tea taking in the gentle warmth of the tea that was perfectly melded with juicy goodness of oranges, blanketing me with a comforting sensation filled with energy. Thus, the melding of natural sweetness of orange with amber depths of tea creates a sensory experience that is both comforting and invigorating. As you continue to drink it a wave of vitality washes over you awakening both your mind and body for the day's endeavors and filling you with a sense if contentment and anticipation for what awaits.

This orange infused tea is a promising and delightful morning indulgence. It awakens the senses offering a refreshing jolt to the morning routine. It is like a moment of tranquility admist the day's hustle, a simple pleasure that sets a bright and flavorful tone for the day, reminding us to savor the simple joys in life. As I finished my tea I got up stretched and began to take a walk in my garden lost in thoughts. The cup remained on the wooden plate on the bench while I hopped like a little girl in the garden taking in the vibrant blooming flowers and fluttering butterflies.

Coming to the bond I fed the ducks and leaned against the guardrail of the bridge on the pond, I let the morning breeze play with my hair. The moment of serenity was broken by the buzzing of my wrist-watch reminding me to the planned activities for today.
