This article made me stop and think.
The very first impression I got from it was that the ritual didn't have to be exactly like it was done by professionals and the real tea connoisseurs. I might improvise. Customise the drinking tea to my way of life and still call it a ritual. Eventually, it would be no less special for me and maybe even more special because I invented it, it pleases me and so I treasure it.
