This morning, I told myself — “Let’s begin the day elegantly, with a clear mind.”
So I placed a handful of dried jasmine blossoms into my glass teapot,
set an adorable little glass cup beside it,
and smiled, thinking, “Yes, this is the kind of morning I want.”
I switched on the kettle, tidied the counter,
and sat down at my desk to check my emails.
A little while later, I thought, “Surely the water’s boiled by now.”
But when I walked back into the kitchen — silence.
I pressed the button again. Still nothing.
And then I saw it.
The kettle was sitting peacefully on the bench, not on its electric base. 😅
I couldn’t help but laugh.
Well, that’s me — balancing somewhere between elegance and clumsiness.
In the end, the jasmine tea was brewed,
its golden light shimmering through the glass like a small sunrise.
With that, my heart settled — calm, clear, and quietly amused.
Here’s to another day,
beginning with a little laughter, and the soft fragrance of jasmine. ☕✨
