On Gracefulness
The trust that others place in you is your grace.
- anonymous, Yogi tea
So many times, in the midst of having fun, I’ve forgotten to behave well.
So many times, because of my selfish tendencies, I wasn’t so nice.
So many times, in my sadness, I was unpleasant.
So many times, I’ve used anger as an excuse for being disrespectful.
So many times, … sigh.

I found this quote from Yogi tea. I was drinking this mayan spice chocolate flavored Yogi tea then I noticed the paper flap hanging by the mug. That paper you hold at the other end of the teabag, it has in it some messages of reflections like this.
What a delight! It’s like a fortune cookie, but it doesn’t give fortune but rather pieces of reflections. It turned out that all Yogi teabags have these messages of reflections, quotes, wisdom…
