Saturday I was fortunate to attend a Japanese tea ceremony at the Montreal Botanical Garden. A few times a day, members of the Montreal Association of Chado Urasenke Tankokai allow visitors to learn the art of preparing and serving tea in the traditional Japanese. If you are interested in this culture, you will be captivated by this practice where every move is calculated, the objects are aligned and where nothing is superfluous as it is a sound, a word or a decoration. The only way a door should follow very precise rules. This is an opportunity to live the "Zen" and realize that "we must enjoy every moment because we do live once."
