I like the parallel of tea and the creative process. Great things cannot be rushed. I remember learning calligraphy from my father and hearing him repeating the old phrase "one and one's calligraphy grow old together" 人書俱老 to me.
"But the road to ‘good’ is a delicate, lifelong practice of balancing act." This is a helpful reminder for me!
Great! That is a beautiful phrase. In Japan, they practice 3 arts of refinement: Chado (tea), Kado (flowers), Kodo (incense). These practices focus on inner peace and thus cannot be rushed.
