Recently, several unhappy things happened to Gina. One afternoon she called a friend to talk about them. After hearing her words, the friend invited her to her home for tea and said, “All trouble will disappear after tasting tea.”
Gina couldn't believe her, but she still decided to go for relaxation. At the friend's home, her friend took out a square box and said, “I asked someone to buy the tea from China. It's said that there are five tastes.” Then, her friend opened the box slowly, took out a spoon of tea carefully, put it into a teapot(茶壶)gingerly, and then poured in boiled water softly.
Only one minute later, the friend poured out a cup of tea and asked Gina to taste it. Gina drank it but nearly puked(吐)it out. She shouted, “Is this tea? It tastes like medicine!”
The friend just smiled. She re-poured boiled water into the teapot. After a minute, the friend poured out another cup and asked Gina to try the second one. Gina took a drink and found it was not as terrible as the first one but still bitter(苦的). This time she didn't shout. When Gina drank the fifth cup, a sunny smile shone on her face. She said, “It tastes good! I've never tasted such a wonderful flavor(味道).”
The friend said, “Life is just like this! Only when we taste it patiently can we feel happy.”
