Strengthening the Mother Daughter Relationship through Mother Daughter Tea Time
A mother and daughter’s relationship resembles a fine bone china tea cup. Like a fine china tea cup, the mother daughter relationship is a thing of beauty to look at but can be difficult to handle.
Bone China
Bone china has a reputation for being extremely white in color, translucent and strong. It also has a distinct chime that is unequal to any other pottery. What truly sets bone china apart from other materials is the addition of bone ash to the clay. When bone ash is added to the already pure China clay, an even greater whiteness, translucency, and strength is achieved.
The Mother Daughter Relationship at Its Best
A Mother Daughter relationship at its best is a thing of beauty because it is one of the purest forms of love to be experienced. It is a love that is self sacrificing and rare. Just as the bone china tea cup is white because of the bone ash incorporated in the clay, so does the mother daughter relationship reflect a rare purity because of the familial bonds.
This bond between mother and daughter can also be as translucent as a piece of bone china. When the relationship is held up to light, the Light can be seen shinning through it from every angle. And even though this affiliation is a delicate thing of beauty, like the bone china tea cup, it as has great strength and can bear up under much pressure.
The Mother Daughter Relationship at Its Worst
At its worst, the mother daughter relationship can be as much an eyesore as an uncherished tea cup. The whiteness and purity of the bond may begin to yellow as the discoloration of past arguments and disagreements remain like a resistant stain. If the mother daughter relationship is not handled with great care and gentle concern for each others feelings it can become chipped around the rim. And, in the worst case scenario, if there is a blatant disregard for the feelings of the other, the relationship can be utterly shattered.
Mother Daughter Tea
Life seems to be so stressful and hurried and it feels easier at times to just do the next thing. Mothers and daughters have a unique opportunity to carve out a moment in time to create precious memories and take care of their relationship by participating in the familiar ritual of Tea time. During this mother daughter tea, let your lovely tea cup be a subtle reminder and a gentle warning of the fragility and delicateness of the mother daughter relationship with each sip taken.
