Truths from Teabags 29.01.

I always seem to open the tea bag with the most opportune message when I need it most. Sometimes I need to remember to forget about the complicated feelings, and just focus on the simple pleasures of life. When I was younger and in situations that were painful (physically, emotionally, mentally) I would just tell myself “tomorrow is another day”* until I fell asleep. I think that’s how meditation became so easy for me. Even though lately has been challenging me, it’s a good practice for me to put my skills to use.

*I’m not sure where this sentence originated from, but I remember it being something my dad told me after a particularly rough night I was having (when I was 5ish)…talk about it sticking with me. My dad now prefers “just keep swimming” after we all saw Finding Nemo as a family. So between those two mantras, the difficult days are easier to get through. I must add, I think it’s adorable when my dad does tell me to “just keep swimming” cause he’ll even say it in Dori’s sing-song voice.
