When winter is at its worst, spring is near

When winter is at its worst, spring is near
The world has seen some very bad tragedies in the past months and many of the effects are still haunting individuals, peoples, and countries. In Hong Kong, where we are stationed in, we have seen the worst political and social incidents since the Second World War. They are continuing to destroy the lasts of the virtues of this most unique place.
Life prevails
Yet new lives come. Plans are made. Dreams that have been smeared will become the sweet dews that nurture the soil for bigger and more dreams. The people will prosper.
Happy Chinese New Year
The Tea Guardian is just a little tea seed that wants to become a good tea bush some day, giving leaves that make fragrant tea that quenches the thirst for some people in a healthier and more delicious way. Now as winter recedes, our branch will stretch and our leaves will open. Tomorrow will be a better day. This New Year will be a better year.
A prosperous New Year to you all.
