peace, answers and tea

1. Peace is not just the mere absence of violence or disturbance. It's when there is a possibility of conflict, but you deliberately avoid violence and adopt methods to solve the problem through peaceful means. That is real peace.   Dalai Lama

2. We spend the day trying to get some answers for the mysterious cough and lung irritation. Finally we see a doctor who really listens and when he spoke, he spoke with authority and in layman terms. We understand now. It is not an infection, it is an irritation. Nothing to do for it now, he can be proactive and preventative in the future.

3. The honey ginger tea crystals are sweet and stingy at the same time. One cup makes me sleepy and my eyes want to shut, sending me for a quick nap.
