Whatever the reason may be, the relaxed mood and soothing qualities from the tea, really boosts the conversation. My parents want to hear news and information about my life. It can be as trivial as to who I met while grocery shopping or that I noticed the first signs of a new season approaching. Every time I start a discussion about any variety of topics, I know my parents have something they can add to the conversation. I always remember a conversation is like playing a game of tennis.
Someone serves the ball so it can be hit back again.
Similarly, conversation is about volleying ideas and information back and forth between people, so everyone can make a contribution. My mother and I recently went to Atlantic City by bus. I was a bit reluctant to do so at first, dreading the thought of being on a bus for over two hours. However, it turned out to be a very pleasant event. I didn t have to drive, so I was more relaxed while my mother and I chatted.
