Qingming Festival

Qingming Festival 清明節

 

What is Qingming?

Qingming Festival (also called Tomb Sweeping Day or, literally, 'Pure Brightness' Festival in English) is a traditional Chinese festival and an important day for most people, including the Han Chinese and some of China's 55 other ethnic minorities, to commemorate their ancestors. This year Qingming begins April 4th. From that date temperatures begin to rise and rainfall increases, indicating that it is the crucial time for plowing and sowing in the spring. The festival, therefore, has a close relationship with agriculture. However, it is not only a seasonal symbol; it is also a day of paying respect to the dead, a spring outing, and other activities.

We as individuals are responsible for the respect paid to our ancestors. Most of us observe the birth and death dates of loved ones with prayers, food offerings, and other rituals. During this time many families are coming together in person or virtually to honor their loving connection and shared values. We raise the teacup to pray for a better world.

“Your life is what your thoughts make it.” –Confucius.

Alishan Supreme Oolong Tea

 

High Mountain Oolong 

Pu-Er Black Tea is unique in that it gets better with age, much like wine. It initially starts out as a green tea but is not fully fired. Instead, the moist leaves are loosely stacked on top of each other to allow to dry and age. The result is a color change from green to a deep burgundy. Supreme Pu-Er has a more fragrant earthy aroma than other Pu-Er.

What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
